    Hi John, amazing things i see here, for a newbie like me ... I have a Crown XLi1500 and I want to make it a better home hifi amp for my tower speakers Paradigm Monitor 11 v.7.  I like the drums/bass to be fast, articulate, punchy ... I hate low, slow bass woowing in my ears ... and seems XLi1500 might be a nice budget solution :)

     

    In a previous post you said: "If there's one place where this amplifier can be improved is the power supply"

     

    Please tell me what do you recommend regarding this subject?  the filtering caps? some 4 x 12000uf/63V Nichicon will be an improvement?

    (replacing those 4 x 10000uf/63V RM)

     

    Thank you for your time! 

     

    P.S. Already noted the 2 coupling capacitors to be replaced with Nichicon Muse 10uf/25V ... are to be more of those needed to be replaced?

     

     

     

     

    Hello biscu,

     

    Did you end up upgrading your xli 1500? If so, which caps etc did you upgrade, and to what?

     

    best
