Default Very poor electros ...


"Dave Platt"
Arfa Daily

Most of them are not located near to hot-running
components, so I'm at a bit of a loss to explain how that many caps all go
bad.


Could they date to the "stolen partial electrolyte formula" era?


** Q. Why was that formula stolen ??

A. Because it was the secret to making tiny, high value and LOW ESR
electros for use in PC mobos and SMPS.

Not for low value, regular electros in audio.
