Yes, 10 uF is rather large for a coupler, alright, but not unheard of. Conversely, .47uF would be on the small side for a "powerful" amp using the 6C33C out (4.7 uF might be more like it...). My own phono stage uses 5 uF film couplers. One would suppose that anything out of the signal path or correction circuits could be electrolytic, or possibly something like the large oiler. What other sort of "input" would one filter with a 450V, 10 uF film cap?
Did you measure the rails and check against the MKP V rating?
Since I still feel "fuzzy" on the subject, I have waited to do anything but talk; the "replacement" caps are actually in a drawer; I'll get to it eventually...
