Help adding Vcaps to Jolida JD100 CD player

Hi,

I've soldered and done basic stuff like that, and have a basic understanding of electronics. What I would like to do is to add V-caps to a Jolida JD100 CD player. What would I need to buy, and what would I need to remove/add to do this modification? If someone could post instructions, it would help me, and probably others with this excellent CD player! Thanks.

Replace only the signal path "coupling" capacitors with V-Caps, and I would recommend using oil-caps bypassed with Teflon caps. There are other caps that are better for power delivery and "decoupling", such as Black Gates

Dear Tony: I agree with Steve. Btw, the teflon bypass caps can be from V-caps, too.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Tony: Jeffrey ask you for the schematic diagram. This is all about and I think that Jeffrey can give you the support for to know what caps do you have to change.

Regards and enjoy the music.

I'm not sure how to find the schematic of the CD player? I'll try and look for it. Thanks!
