  • Which of these same spec Nichicon caps should I use? Which is older?

    Probably should file this under "Things that don't matter" but...
    I'm recapping my Peavey Classic 30, which of these would you use?
    I'm guessing the dark blue one is newer and therefore better.
    They're both NOS, no idea of their history.

    If one of them is higher temp, use that one. It should say on the other side of the caps.

        I tried!
        In that case, assuming they both test good and/or are new, flip a coin.

        P.S. I agree with you that the darker one is likely newer, so if you don't have a coin............

          Thanks Dude.
          I'll see if I can get them tested but probably go with the dark blue ones cuz they're prettier....
