If I were to upgrade the cross overs in my 11t. I already have rdo 194's

I would need the following?

2 12uF mylar
2 12uF electrolytic
2 34uF electrolytic
2 2.0 mills resisters 5w
2 2.7 mills resisters 5w

What is the difference between mylar and electrolytic?

I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    Omit the 12uf cap that parallels the resistor, and you might as well use 12 watt mills resistors, and you are good:)

    So for the high end I only need 1 12uf Cap and the 2 resisters?

    And the low end only needs the 34uf Cap?

    Good to go?

    Yes sir. I have done this mod, and Jake too. It adds some detail, and saves money:) What kind of caps are you using?

    Thanks for the info Ben. I will probably maintain the original spec though. I am looking at doing either Sonicaps or I may try the Daytons. I have to consider how much I put into these speakers.
