Hi irribeo,
Well let's see how long it takes. But I believe BG NX Hi-Q has the "magic" that other caps don't 😀
I have SEPF 320uF 25v, 120uF 25v on hand. But Oscon caps usually has faster pace of music and too mellow for my liking.
but it's the matter of different sound preference Man, those caps went out of stock pretty fast...
Others - any come easily to mind (higher or lower price)?
If those 6.3V caps explode, other components may die as well & your listening will be curtailed 😱
To avoid the ground loop, you may try something like a Traco TEL 5-1211, as it provides galvanic isolation. At least with a Dolry HiFi Stone hooked to a DTA-1 this eliminates any noise and buzzing completely while connected to the same 12V source.
Edit: The TEL 5-1211 is for 9-18V in, the TEL 5-2411 is 18-36V in and 5V out.

Thanks for the concern 🙂 So far I've been checking the temp of the chip and 6.3v caps. Playing 6 hours straight with decent volume, they are not even warm. I am not going more into the discussion of 6.3v thing. I'll post more anyway if something good or bad happens. Hope my patience pays off after lstening to the amp for more hours
😀
Why don't you just wire a couple OSCONs in parallel? If using the YJ or Sure amps, feed the leads of the top-mounted cap through the thru-holes and solder on a parallel OSCON from the bottom. The bottom cap will need a bit of space from the board to access soldering both together with a fine pencil soldering tip to the thru-hole eyelets. Maybe these:

By the way, here's some interesting reading on Panasonic OSCONs:

It is marketing literature from Panasonic, but it may explain why most who have tried these find them to improve the performance of TPA31xx Class D amps. Nichicon and others also offer conductive polymer-type caps in radial thru-hole and SMD mount versions that are probably worth trying.

Please wear safety goggles when playing with an "open" amp and taking a peek. BTW it will cost you your amp, both BG NX HiQ and your speakers in worst case scenario. If that is called "paying off" then it's OK.
Could someone please remind me how the pins are configured on the Panasonic EVJ-Y10F03A54 pot. I've spent about 2hrs trying to find the info without any luck.
Thanks
Thanks
are there good sources for oscons spotted in europe or germany?
from panasonic only the sepf-series provides one single cap with >= 25V rating.
i have looked through some manufacturer sites searching for polymer caps.
i found
- nichicon NU-series
- chemicon PSG-series

Any opinions on sound performance between Panasonic EVJ-Y10F03A54 Stereo Pot (VS) ALPS 50K, Blue Velvet - STEREO Pot
Hello!
Does anybody knows the speakers output +/- order for the green board?
LOUT and ROUT but where is the right + and -?
Thank you!

I think you can check with the meter. The speaker outputs are always in series with the inductors on both the positive and neg side.
my green board is on the way also from china
Ydbz?
input connector and mute sd connector on left side, so looking at it from chipside: +,-,+,- (I think all 3116 boards are like that or should be LOL, 3116chip pin-layout, if your green board is Advance Controls ac1103 tpa3110 eg, tpa3110 is + - - +)
