Coupling cap upgrade for Cary CAD-805C help

Hi all,
I want to change coupling caps in this monos to Jensen or Mundorf.
1- My question is how many caps total ? Cary site list 3 for 805AE - mine is 805C

2- Value of the caps are 47 microfarad 450V - I don't seem to find this value in partsconnexion and other online store. Only 0.47 microfarad available. Any comment?

3- Where I can locate these caps. Note: 805C has only one 6SL7

Many thanks

I recently installed four of these in my Cary monoblocks. A most excellent upgrade, worth every penny! AND- Yes; you can safely increase the voltage rating of the coupling cap(just FYI). (http://www.partsconnexion.com/capacitor_film_duelund_pio_elec_new.html)

Would suggest the you contact Cary for advice on this. Also recommend the Cardas Teflon coupling caps. Replace the power supply 0.01uF bypass caps with the Jensen.
