Probably should've posted that here in the first place but...mea culpa.
So I will continue here, in EICO place.
The previous thread is at the link above.
The last post by self:
Have finished recapping.
I went ahead with restuffing the twistlocks. The mentioned before high ripple Panasonic 22uF caps went inside. One of the twist tabs on each cap got soldered to the chassis.
I used Sprague Atom TVA series for low-voltage axial feedback electrolytic caps.
I used Vishay Röderstein film caps for the film caps that needed to be replaced. Which is all except 0.1uF interstage DC blockers, which were just fine.
I also replaced the 0.033uF Death Caps with X2/Y2 safety type.
Had to replace 220K resistors, were way out of spec, the rest seems very good.
Now to the tubes.
I will need full set of tubes for one amp and some for the other. However since tubes, at least the output, need to be somewhat mached, I think I'll go with full two sets.
Which brings me to the question: what mfrs would you recommend for ....all of them? Especially for the 6L6GC?
Also need shields for EF86.
And the last one: where could I get the RCA jacks, the panel mount type with two-screw mount? Mine are oxidized, I'd like to replace them.
