An eBay seller, who is a engineer, generously provided me some insight and off I went. Please reply if you experts out there see any errors. Chart was created as follows:
Thanks everyone.

- Pulled all data from Service Manual and selected every capacitor listed as an electrolytic. C22, marked with an asterisk, shows in the list but does not exist on the PCB X-rays. Hmmmm.
- Made sure stuff was in-stock (08/2018).
- Matched uF values exactly.
- Next was to try and match voltage exactly.
- Next was to select "Audio Grade".
- Next was to select "Nichicon" for one list and "ELNA" for the other.
- For Nichicon's, attempted to follow quality series; always trying for "UKA" first as I believe these are the best.
- For ELNA's, selected SILMIC II series.
- Finally I upped the voltage rating by one step (if it had not already been done due to availability) as this was a suggestion of the engineer. I will mention that he stated he did this for certain conditions that I am not smart enough to discern.
Thanks everyone.
