Hey guys...So, I've installed Dayton 100uf/250v film output caps and a 2.2uf Dayton bypass on the #1 PSU 220uf/250v cap (along with C7-X choke mod).

Can't leave well enough alone, so I'm thinking I'll play around with some bypass caps.

Been trying to read some of the older threads I could find...leading me to maybe try the cheap Russian PIOs and Teflons.

Thinking K75-10s 1uf/250v (-/+10%) PIO bypassed again by .056uf K72P-6 Teflon....and a .1 or .15uf K72P-6 on the Dayton 2.2uf.

I'm wondering if using 500v versions of the Teflons is necessary...They are available in 200v, and this seems like it would be just fine in the double bypass position.  Thoughts???

Also love to hear other reasonably priced options/opinions/experiences...Jantzen Z-Caps?  JBX?  Mundorf Supremes (-/+2%, maybe could be lower value .33 or .47uf)?

TIA
