    The Sunvalley had 3x3.3uf caps in parallel for output. After looking at the options and available space I decided to go with 1x10uf Mundorf Evo Oil per channel. They showed up yesterday and I stuck em in today.
    First removed the old caps:

    Didnt get a chance to listen much, hopefully tonight or tomorrow. Treble is already smoother than the generic Chinese mkp caps though.
