33µ-Elko

There should still be the big elko "C2" with
the value of 33µF on your workbench. It will
be soldered now. It's body is to long to stand
vertical like the other parts.

This is the reason, we must solder it while
having it standing out of it's drilling for about
1 cm (~0.4 inches). It's wires are long enough
this way, to be bent and allow the elko to lie
flat on the pcb as you can see in the lowest
pic.

If you prefer, you perfectly can bend it FIRST
and solder AFTERWARDS.

Keep an eye on the right polarisation, the
golden stripe is the minus-end and should
point towards the eq-pots.
