I agree that the recommendation is puzzling to me too. I would have expected
that new polarized electrolytics would have been the type to use for a
replacement of the tantalums. 

Good video though, and some more good info on CS-80 maintenance/repairs.
Thanks.

I think the YouTube series of videos on saving the CS80 - by Gavin Curtis -
shows those tantalum capacitors replaced with non-polarised polystyrene
caps.... can that be right, replacing polarized with non-polarized?
