I am writing about recapping two Sansui Eights that I have. And No, they are not Thrift Store finds. One of them, I am the original owner from about 1969 or 1970. I bought it from the, Hi-Fi Club at Ramey AFB, PR when I was in the US Air Force stationed there. The other I bought off EBay about 10 - 15 years ago.
I have started a list of capacitors that I may need. The question that I am going to ask could apply to recapping almost any vintage amp or receiver. Right now I am looking for some general answers and not specific answers.
My receivers have ceramic capacitors, mica capacitors, mylar capacitors, aluminum solid electrolytic capacitors, styrol capacitors, tantalum capacitors, bp electrolytic capacitors and oil capacitors. Should some of these capacitors be replaced with newer or a different types of capacitors?
Thanks
