    Yes, I saw that was also an upgrade option to explore.

    Might go that route if I can't find an OEM cable.

    Why?

    The ones I ordered are audio quality and are just about the same size the OEM's as there's not a lot room for larger caps like Solens or Sonicaps for the crossover board.

    Help me out here if I'm wrong as I can still cancel my order.

    What brand and models did you order? Digi-key isn't known for quality audio grade components.

    I cancelled the order.

    I found a few threads here that people had used Parts Express and Parts Connexion.

    Will spend some time tomorrow going through them and put an order together.

    Try Clarity CSA or Jantzen Superior Z for caps. Vishay-Mills for resistors.

    Madisound IIRC has a good selection of clarity caps.

    Thanks guys.

    Madissound is where I'm putting a order in with. They are USA based and have a great deal of everything I will need from multiple manufactures to do the upgrade.
