Geno Seasoned Member Online Without music, life would be a mistake. Posts: 2345 Pearl, MS	Which caps are these? 04/26/20 at 18:01:29 I’ve just purchased a used CSP3, and want to know exactly which caps are in it - Type l or ll ? Photo below:

Reply #3 - 04/26/20 at 18:49:00 The caps should say "Copper foil" or "Beeswax Paper" (type 1) as pictured on their website (I believe, it's been a while since I had a look inside.) Type 2 use in Decware pre-dated the ZROCK components I believe.

At first, I thought I had Type II. Looking again, I was mistaken. Actually Type I. Still a step up from the film caps. Thanks guys!

Yes the PO may have swapped out some components but at least you'll know what it was built to. Then compare what's inside vs the build sheet.
