Pioneer sx 828 tant caps

[Tubeglowpio]

Going through a sx 828 right now and wondering if changing those tant caps will lose some of the magic this amp has. I feel like they had room for e-caps on the tone board so wondering why they chose the tant caps, I could fit some film caps but wonder if I should leave those alone. I know they are more likely to blow over time in some circuits but looks like they have some high value resistors to prevent much current flowing. has anyone replaced those and noticed a negative change in the sound?

Use film or aluminum electrolytic.. Ditch the Tant's

Get rid of them. The "magic" isn't in them.

Tants are fairly low leakage though, so if 'lytic, use Nichicon's UKL series if film won't fit.
