I tested the caps in my PS S/500 a few months ago. Still healthy. It is hard to want to fork over a lot of money to replace something that functions well. Replace the tantalum. It is either .15uf or .22uf, I cannot remember. The .22 feels more familiar for the optical bias. I used WIMA films with the long leads.
Taking the chassis apart is a zen experience to say the least. You unhook the PS lines to the channels, take the front plates apart, the rear cover off, unscrew the heatinks from the bottom cover and everything is filleted right there for you. Someone thought that out. Perfection!
