even better - in that case - just try already mentioned big motor run caps as local bypass for cap bank ; one per positive and one per negative leg ; judging by pics of Papa's J2 , you have plenty of space to squeeze two of them .
my preferred brand is Icar Italy , but this is common brand on this side of big splash , dunno for your side .

Hi,

I've look for Icar Italy caps here state-side but could not find a supplier. Anyone know of one? Perhaps they are rebranded under different name?

Could anyone explain how these caps make a better sound? Or give a link?

it's easy - either imagine them as Audio Grade Caps , made of Vestal Virgin's hymens , either step aside and think what they really are - first class professional grade film caps , commonly used to feed-through several amps .

clearer now ?

Do you mean high freq. drek is filtered?

that brings you more speed and clarity ...... whatever is filtered .

really - that's basic thing - bypass-es are beaten to death , at least here on DiyA .

there is also nothing new with using motor-runs as PSU caps (or bypass ones ) - many production made gadgets use them , rebranded (or not) as audiophool grade .
