Harman kardon a300 rebuild

I would do a middle of the road approach. If you keep adding uF to power supply filter caps you’ll increase the surge currents and stress the rest of the power supply on turn on.

Assuming you are reading this correctly, and the cap was specified as being at least 60uF and no more than 100uF, somewhere in between is fine.

Yes, thanks for the response. I’ve never seen a power cap with a range specification (I’m sure there are those out there who’ve seen this before). I don’t really understand the ‘hot can’ part of the equation and any time I’ve replaced caps I’ve always tried to find something within 10% of the stated uF value if there wasn’t a direct substitute. Makes me wonder if a so called hot can is meant to supply a variable range of uF’s. 

Please refer to the schematic,

There are total of three filter capacitors in its power supply: one 100µF 200V can, one 50µF 400V + 100µF 200V can and one 3X 40µF can.

Are you talking about the 50µF 400V + 100µF 200V can? It is two capacitors inside a can with 4 taps.

It’s C23 on the schematic. On the schematic it’s rated as 100uF @200v but the can is rated (as per the piece of paper between the metal and the cardboard covering) 60-100uF @ 350 volts. Everything on the unit looks original although I suppose the person who owned it before me could have replaced the cap.
Now after close inspection… I see the resistor between c23 and c24 is 650 ohms instead of the 470 ohms that is shown in the schematic. The soldering looks terrible so it was probably added by someone who couldn’t find the right replacement for the capacitor. Does this seem logical? 
BTW, I’m a beginner with this.

-can’t believe I didn’t notice this earlier…. Beginner mistake
