Hi Everyone,
I have a Philips 388 Integrated Amp that I'm going to be recapping. I was putting my cap list together and found that my large caps are in series.... Or at least I think they are. It has two 10000uf 56v caps separate from the PC board, wired together, then they head out to their spots on the board.
I've attached a picture of the wiring and I'm hoping someone could double check what I'm looking at before I move forward. These are in series right? Why is it wired this way? And what should I replace them with? I really like this amp and don't want to mess it up.
Thanks for the help,
Adam
PS: It's hard to see in the pic, but the black wiring that looks T shaped is connected to the neg on the right cap and the pos on the left cap. Red on right attached to pos, blue on left attached to neg.
