Are you sure about that? My two CTC-11s are full of "maroon drop" caps that look like newer Mylar "orange drops" except for the brownish maroon color. I replaced the electrolytics but left the maroon drops in place, and both sets play fine.

I don't know exactly when they started using Mylar caps. Anyhow, you might want to check a couple of those maroon guys before you shotgun all of 'em.
