The only caps more reliable & also better performing than the ChemiCons are the upper grades of Nichicon, e.g., KG, FG, Muse, etc. There are other brands that might at first perform as well, but none more long term reliable than Nichicon. Go with the largest uf value that will fit of same or higher voltage rating. I always go with 3x or more of original value.
