Couple them with the usual "bypass" formula. What's wrong with yr present caps???

Yes black gates are great but 2400 bucks for caps is not justified unless the amp is so fantastic you want to take it to another level. I agree with Gregm in that if there is nothing wrong with the caps in your amp, why bother. If the caps are ok then try some bypass caps. Lots of good bypass caps out there. Joe
