My initial reaction would be to examine them for any physical signs of
distress, and then measure the ripple when the amp was delivering a
reasonable amount of power. That would give me some idea if they'd need
replacing without having to unsolder them. If all seemed well and the
amp passed its specs I'd then decide if they should be replaced or not.
If I were doing this for someone else, I'd also ask them what they
preferred if there was no obvious problem.


Tend to agree with the main reservoir caps. They are expensive items, and
often can't be found in an identical case, so may need modification to fit.
