Audio Grade Capacitors. Marketing Bull? – Page 1

I pretty much asked the question in the subject.

I’m replacing 2 x 10,000 uF 63V Capacitors in my old home cinema amplifier. It’s showing signs of psu issues and those look to be the culprit.

My question is, are the ‘audio’ grade caps really much different to standard ones? I can easily obtain that value of electrolytic from mail order suppliers here in the UK but can’t find anything specifically designed for ‘audio’ use.

I am a sound engineer by trade and I do care about the sound quality out the back but there’s a lot of marketing wank out there and want to be sure before I pay more to import something or go further afield..

The ones in it are Samwha branded and it’s a Denon amp.
