Replacement capacitors

[Hoppurr]

Quick background, i am restoring a vintage Magnavox astro-sonic console stereo, and the system works, however there is a hum in the speakers, regardless of volume setting. I have been told this hum is because the isolation capacitors are getting old, and likely need replacing, the current ones I believe are the yellow ones in the picture.

1) Are the ones from here viable replacements? If not, where can i find replacement caps.
2) are those the only caps that would have to be changed?

yup good ... I think ... assuming the one in you photo is 1500uF and not 150 uF ?? is too hard to read

2) are those the only caps that would have to be changed?

possibly not, but if gear is over ~ 25 yrs of age, all the electrolytic caps will be suspect

i see, yes they are 1500, and it's a start i suppose, thanks

thanks, looking at the back of the caps, they look like this, any suggestions on how to proceed
