What are the input capacitors and can I substitute a different type?

The input capacitors are a quality film type, Bennic or Illinois MWR. There is limited space within the case for physically large capacitors. Values between 2 and 4 microfarads are suitable, and any voltage rating above 10 volts is fine. If using polarized electrolytics such as Black Gate, the positive terminal should be towards the Tripath controller chip. Q: Help! The amplifier won’t turn off! A: On a few samples, there is a bit of residual “flash” inside the power switch mechanism. Depress the power switch to the ON position and slide your finger off of the button to allow it to snap back out. This should fix the problem.
