Thanks and cheers,

No, you just use the usual cables and enjoy.

It's difficult to say how much of a Supercap you are using with a 72.

The SUpercap was designed for the 52 and when used with one has 6 (I think) separate power lines

The 82 when using a Supercap uses it like 2 HiCaps (2 *2 lines) the 72 uses it like 1 HiCap (2 lines), hence 1 third of the possible capacity.

However all the configs use the 1 transformer and set of smoothing caps etc. So how much does a 72 use? I don't know, but I do know it'll sound better than a HiCap
