Sony Preamp Repair Question

216.214.206.63

Hi. I have a 70's-vintage Sony TA-2000F preamp with a slight channel imbalance problem. It's subtle but noticeable and can really be seen on the VU meters. It was suggested to me that there may be a bad coupling capacitor.

Forgive me for what's probably a dumb question, but what would the coupling caps look like? There are two very large capacitors near the transformer and a number of smaller ones on the various circuit boards. Could anyone point me in the direction of the coupling caps? Also, any replacement tips? Thanks!
