I am interested in this as well. This link seems to give a good explanation. https://www.nextpcb.com/blog/how-to-discharge-a-capacitor-comprehensive-guide |
The nextpcb article above says to short caps with a screwdriver. I do not recommend subjecting power capacitors, especially electrolytic ones to a dead short as they may be permanently damaged. It's possible that the PS Audio unit already discharges the caps on power down. Measure with DMM set to Vdc and relevant range. |
