Hello all,
Does anyone happen to know the factory value for the filter capacitors on the +-85v side of a GK 800RB (1992 vintage) power supply section? The ones installed are not original, and I'd like to get things back to their original state. I was given the amp non-functioning by a friend who was going to toss it, and I'm taking it on as a fun project. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Search and download the schematic , but in any case, value is not critical, same or higher is fine, as long as it fits.
Definitely do not "downgrade" them "just to have original spec".
Technology has advanced a lot since 1992.

Thanks you guys! The originals were axial, but were replaced with radials - which is fine with me. I've since checked them out and they test well and are of the correct value. I've verified that the power supply isn't the problem. I just needed to verify that and was looking at a later schematic that had "108" for the value on it and it was confusing me. I know about three digit codes on caps, but that was way off from what I figured they should be. Thanks again for the assistance.
