I was looking up replacement caps and there are several different kinds on Mouser's web page....
Polyester Orange Drop, Polypropylene Orange Drop, DC Film, Polypropylene Film, Sub-Miniature Metallized
Polyester Film, Boxed Metal Film, Radial Metallized Polypropylene Film.......the list seems to just go on and on!!
The original are Gudeman .047MFD 400V and are the wax type. These, I've heard, do not have a long shelf life so I guess getting the exact originals are pretty much out of the picture (even IF I could find them). I would like to have the closest to the originals as possible, or at least in terms of sound quality....one's that aren't going to compromise the original vintage sound qualities of the V-M.
Would the big silver can type filter cap still be safe to use, or should this be replaced as well?
