Default Re: Capacitor problems

From what I can remember. And it is a long time ago the Wima toffee capacitors gave a lot of trouble in Decca sets DM45 etc. Strangely they were ok in Grundig tape recorders and radios.
Wax capacitors failed randomly the blue and white ones not so good either.
Philips mustard coloured were the best I don't think I replaced more than two or three in 40 years servicing !
