Tweaking the caps of the Dared SL-2000A


Can anyone suggest capacitor tweaks for the Dared SL-2000A considering the limited space available inside the Dared for certain caps?

There are two input caps you could change first. There is one on each side of the volume pot. Change with the same value that is in there now.

Then you can look at the four yellow caps behind them. They are the ones that look like yellow boxes. They should be the output caps. Again use the same values uf and make sure the voltage ratings are equal to or greater than the stock caps.

Which caps to use is completely up to you. There are some good capacitor threads to look at.
The Auricaps are nice capacitors. I think partsconnexion has them at 40% off now. You may want to try the input caps first. They are smaller and will be cheaper. The output caps look larger and will be more expensive. Also you will need 4 of them.
Wima MKP-10's are fairly inexpensive and may fit directly into the output positions. They sound pretty good and many OEM use them. I've used them on several builds/mods. The Auricaps would work well here also but they will cost considerably more. Happy tweaking!
