I rebuild all my own can capacitor needs at a small fraction of "store 
bought"
They look good and work well and once you do one to learn the tricks you can 
turn them around pretty quick
Please let me know if the link doesn't work as I have been having transition 
problems with google, picasa and new computer

Hello all , I'm wondering from your experiences what the best way is to re 
cap the HV section.

I see you can buy replacements cans ,but I am wondering if
anyone had taken any photos of the rebuild process and by
that I mean , removed the inside of the paper or metal cans
and soldered new caps inside.

I may just leave the originals in and solder in new caps below the
chassis which is what a lot of folks seem to do..
And for those who have recapped the DX-100 specifically ,
What values/voltages are best?

Best regards, Andrew Kopke
