Brad - That’s a really nice amplifier, I would’ve given anything to have been able to afford one of the 3 series Levinson amplifiers back in the mid 90’s. As far as the capacitor issue, I would venture to say if it’s lasted this long without any bad caps, you may have been lucky and may not have any issues other than aging. It’s been my understanding that the failure rate was so high it’s unlikely that it would have made it to 2018 without either replacement or just plain out good fortune. That being said, sending it in to an authorized repair center would confirm it’s up to spec.
