If you have the schematic to the amp, you will see that to discharge the juice you need to short the ground to point "H" on the schematic. This is done with the amp off, and unplugged from the wall, of course. You can get a copy of the schematic here at this website, if you dont already have it. As for the price to re-cap the amp, that is hard to say because the price will vary, depending on where you bring it. I know the tech that did mine pretty good, so I get a deal and I also got it done with a bunch of other work so the bench time was more. I'd like to say somewhere in the $100 market, give or take some dollars. Its hard to say, but that should give you an rough idea. It would be cheaper if you buy the parts yourself from a dealer and then have them installed, if your repair man will do this. Over priced parts is where they make some of their money.
