What do you mean non electrolytic? The A2000 is all through hole radial caps. The only ones i would use are Panasonic Radials, which are electrolytic. I dont do ceramic caps. Its not the proper way to do it and it can lead to other issues.

The A2000 and 3000 are a lot of extra work. Its about $68 to $80 depending on the caps and how long it takes to get them all out.


I think he may mean polymer caps.  although still technically electrolytic sometimes called solid caps.
I also agree on not replacing electrolytic caps with ceramics.
