Default When to service my MC7270?

When would it be good to service/re-fresh my MC7270 that is in my second system?

My MC7270 amp seems to perform well, but I am left wondering if it would sound even better if the caps were re-freshed.

I have no idea of what parts to order or what would be needed. Has anybody had an item like this serviced in the SF bay area?

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Michael

Replacing the signal caps with something newer such as Nichicon FG or MUSE will make a nice difference. Other than the two 10uf on the input board, it's not very difficult.
