Re: capacitor crossover mod

Best way to check cap values is with a cap meter. See if you can't network among your friends to find one to use. Failing that you might go to a store selling meters, electronic parts, etc. and ask them if you could pay them to check the caps for you. The sonic quality of the caps you use in your XO are extremely important to the quality of sound your system will produce. Don't skimp here. Jensen 4-pole 'lytics have a reputation for very good sound. Generally, the best sonics in this use are hi-quality film caps. Caps bundled in parellel are additive, so you can build up the exact values you need.

Happy Llistening !
