Those capacitors are a part of the shunt components in the low pass filter network. They are not passing all of the current generated by the amplifier. They are passing only that part of the harmonic energy that makes it that far through the filter, and then only half of that, since there are two of them in parallel. Without drowning in arithmetic, I suggest that a good quality ceramic disc will probably be adequate.
