    Nice! I was able to mod my 8Ts myself. You are right, not too tough. I used Bennic caps, but still made a huge difference. I could only imagine the difference in stepping up to the Clarity / Mundorf upgrade.

    Thanks man! :)

    Bennic makes great electrolytics for the money, definitely better than stock electrolytics.

    I really* like Nichicon electrolytics but at their price you might as well go to film caps.

    There are Bennics in a pair of B&W 610i that I just aquired. I wonder if they are stock or have been replaced. The speakers are from 1994, and the caps are in great shape.

    B&W use Bennic caps.
