Hello all.
I m thinking of upgrading the mylar outpur caps in the c4,there are 4x 1uf 100v..thinking of replacing them with M cap evo oil...will this improve the sound? I m looking to get a litlle bit warmer and holographic sound especially from the phono

:dunno:

Let us know how it sounds.
Just in case, don't discard the Yamaha pieces.;)
I won t discard them since i found the original electrolitycs to be the best compared to new one s in terms of sound quality except for elna silmic I alpha gold (are very hard to find)...i ve recaped it in the past with silmic 2 (not alpha) and it sounded bad...i did n t like it at all...replacing back the oriignals bring it back to beautiful sound...so i don t know about the quality of caps these days except elna silmic 1 alpha which i had 4 or 5 of them in one c4 in the past (my first c4) which i sold ...and that one sounded so good with those few silmic 1 alpha golds,3d holographic with air between instruments...beautiful
I hope i can recreate that sound with these m caps maybe
