In Reply to: Recapping old loudspeakers. Question on cap types... posted by samstone on January 11, 2022 at 05:21:43:
Don't use NP electrolytics unless you cannot afford, or cannot source, the equivalent non-electrolytic alternative.
You can use NP electrolytics -- they're inexpensive, and modern ones are likely a bit better, qualitatively & quantitatively, than any available four or five decades ago, but they won't be as good as the Dayton polypropylene capacitors (link below) for use in loudspeakers.
all the best,
