What are they used for? Some caps make a good Xover cap, but bad in a circuit used in an amplifier. If this is for a Xocer, I prefer the Mundorf Silver, but for the price, the MR, ESA seem to be a good value from Clarity for Xovers. Dueland seem to be highly rated, but a bit pricey. Do a lot of research first, then decide. Caps make a big difference, not always for the better.

to replace the stock caps in my 1.6s
I have found that proper amplification for the maggie is more important than XOVER caps changes. This and room placement. I can get great sound with the stock XOVER or my electronic XOVER if the amp is correct. I have stated this before, but the Bryston amps are magical on the maggies with enough power and finesse to sound complete. This is where I would go first. A lot of amps just do not integrate as well as the Bryston. I like the 4BST, but a bit crisp in the vocals, bass is great, or the 4BSST which is magical. More tube like than my tubes, very grainless. jallen
