Elna caps are supposed to be good quality. It depends on how old they are though

RS stands for Roederstein ( http://www.vishay.com/company/brands/roederstein/ ), also good caps.

RS could also be RS components - usually they also have a part number 3 digits followed by a hyphen then 3 or 4 more digits, i.e. xxx-yyy

They have a website www.rswww.com- if it is an RS part you can look up the specs for the capacitor on their website.
