I have seen old Mallory and Astron paper caps that had two leads in (+) and one lead out (-). These are multi-section caps with a common negative (ground). I also seen caps with two leads in and two leads out. I can't recall one with one in and two out.

Edit: I could have sworn there was a post about multi-lead bypass caps. Really! :lol:

BMW2002Ti, there was a post. I couldn't find this cap on the schematic so I asked. Them I thought? Look on the layout and there it showed 2 caps so I with drew my post. Thanks for your reply.

Also, the cap at the rectifier on print is 25 mfd/50v and what is installed is 50mfd/50v. It looks orig. Your thoughts, go with print?

I would keep with 25mfd. And go to 50VDC. The 50mfd will let more bass into the circuit, so you can go this route, just be aware of the change in low frequency cutoff.

FWIW... I like the Sprague ATOM 25mfd/50VDC or 50mfd/50VDC. The black ones with green lettering.
