    Please, only one thread asking the same question.

    You should replace all the caps with film/foil caps such as Sonicap.

    I received these from a person that was throwing them out. They were in a collage rental, and were misused. Covers for tweeters were missing, and cabinets are a little banged up, but are still in workable condition.

    Do any of the midwoofers "scratch" if you gently push them in? If you press in and hold on the passive radiator how long does it take for the midwoofers to return to their original position?

    They (3) were bad, and 1 was missing. Replaced them and am looking for crossover caps and resistor replacements.
