Audio Note .22uf 630V Copper Foil Mylar in Oil Capacitors
C1, C4, C5, C8

100uf 450V Rubycon Electrolytic Capacitors
C2, C6

470uf 16V ELNA SILMIC II Electrolytic Capacitors
C3, C7
Now we'll install the electrolytic capacitors. As always take note that the stripe denotes the
NEGATIVE side. On the board you'll see a + sign which denotes the POSITIVE side. Be sure to align the
capacitors correctly into position.
Install the 2 100uf 450V Rubycon electrolytic capacitors at C2 and C6.
Install the 2 470uf 16V ELNA SILMIC II electrolytic capacitors at C3 and C7.
Finally, we'll install the non-polarized capacitors, which can go in either direction.
Install the 4 Audio Note .22uf 630V Copper Foil Mylar in Oil capacitors at C1, C4, C5, and C8. These
are heavy capacitors: we don't want the leads to strain bearing the load, so it's a good idea to use
cable ties fed through the holes in the board to tie them solidly to the board. It'd also be nice to
orient them in the same way, just to look good!
