Hi all. I'm recapping my Threshold SL-10 and would like your opinion on a brand of capacitor to use. I know there are allot of good brands out there but would like to hear from anyone who likes the perticular sound of a capacitor. I read of a person who used black gates in his SL-10 and was happy. What about some of the other good sounding capacitors? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Nelson... I appreciate the help. And thanks for all the great audio you designed over the years! 
threshold sl-10 RECAP
hello the one and only
im new to the forum but i bought a threshold sl-10 that i want to recap
it makes a hissing sound on the mc input,mm is still sounding ok
mc input is good for 10 minutes then the bad sound starts,must be bad caps or what?
found this list
Threshold SL-10 Capacitor List
Power Supply: Voltage Quantity
470uf 50v 9
47uf 50v 9
Phono Stage:
470uf 50v 2
220uf 50v 2
47uf 50v 8
4.7uf 50v 2
where is what going on the board?
soldering is no problem just figuring out where all caps are placed,ok
would be great if i could get the help here,THANKS

SL-10
If you search through the forum you'll find quite a few messages about the SL10. Here are the schematics that others have posted. They are quite helpful in determining how to recap an SL10. In mine, I used a combination of Blackgate caps and some Nichicon bipolar caps. I described my experience here: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/pass-labs/162305-restoring-threshold-sl10.html
