Since it's dc and not ac ripple your reading on the output jack changing out the main rail filter's would not solve that issue.

Also do not power up the amp without that 3 pin molex connector being plugged in as that is where that whole 5065 board gets it's ground from, that's unless you want to blow up more parts, lol!

A long these same lines since the connection pins on the board are aluminum I have seen these solder connections go bad, so I now always reflow them with a really hot iron, and with the plug out of the connector.
