If Lamm had actually used the larger 950s in my unit I would probably be less curious about it, but for mine he used 10uF 935 couplers with small 950s for bypass (... I assume they are bypass caps...). Hard to imagine 10 uF couplers would not have a substantial effect on the sound. And, like I said, I am curious.

If Lamm used 935 in coupling positions (use 930 in other location of amp is fine) then I would say that repel of them is very desirable. In fact if I did it I would probably do not solder there the hole and did a half-ass job: juts bite the leads to 935 right next to the caps and in the leads that had soldered to the board juts to connect the new caps, sitting then on a few drops of silicon. It shall be 10 minutes task and very simple to do for a person with very rudimental technical ability. I would be VERY interring to know if the replacement of the coupling caps would minimize the sonic issuers I had with ML2. Unfortunately I will not able able to learn if from your experience and I have no my own ML2 anymore….

I keep getting noise from the 12AX7/sockets, and this noise gets resolved when I clean the connectors.

I am sorry,  but I do not believe in it.
