Hello, I'd like to know if someone can give me some information about capacitor brand on the ai500 (see picture). I want to replace them because they are 30 years old and I want to preserve the original feeling of the amp.
I found the black capacitors as Nippon sm series and I ordered them this evening.
Someone can give me some information about the violet/white axial and the the 2 orange with the Germany (Siemens) word?
Many thanks in advance
Gianni

The brand you use doesn't matter. Just go with a similar value. 4700 µF / 16 V (or higher) is a very common and cheap capacitor. Anything will do.
Orange capacitors should be used for cathode bypass and I want to replace them with elna Silmic 2.
Violet white should be related to power supply. Panasonic should be better ?

As it is said below, the brand does't care. Check in the data sheets and compare, you will found much similitude between brands.
