I have an old audio amplifier (JVC A-GX2B) that sometimes produces crackling noises on one of the outputs. So, I opened it and discovered that its two largest capacitors seem to be leaking :
Can I replace it with any capacitor with the same characteristics (4700uF 50V), or should I instead take specific capacitors for audio? If yes, which ones ?
In addition, do I have interest to replace all the capacitors of this amp (not only the 2 largest)?

as suggested: Cap voltage must be same or more
- also capacitance tolerance doesn't matter, and may be larger value.
- all large e-caps may be replaced at same time.
