I’ll have to go see if I can find some locally. This is the smallest kind I have.

Again with the sideways picture. I don’t know why it does that.

When you take a pic, your position of the device taking a photo determines either portrait or landscape.
I don't know about smart phone pics. but when I download my pics to my PC, the pics appear according to how I held my camera. Portraits will almost always have to be turned after putting them into a program to store them.
NOW...after downloading ( or up-loading ? ) I click on a picture to look at it. A few choices appear ON TOP of the picture after a couple of seconds. One choice is to turn the pic. 90 degrees to the right. You can keep turning the pic as many times as you desire. It can then be positioned the way you want to view it later on.
Smart phones pic. orientation adjustment...somebody else will have to opine.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

I know a local cat that has a minty set of these but he wants 500 for them probably not a bad price ??"if it's not fun, it's not worth it & remember folks, "It's All About The Music"!!

So. This is for each crossover so X2.
4-2uf electrolytic
2-4.4uf mylar
1-55uf electrolytic (combo of 2)
7.5ohm Resistor on the bottom.
Clarity? Sonicap?
Mills for the resistor I guess.
What am I missing?

You mean 27uf x4 for each crossover. -
This is what I used.
8 27uf Jantzen CrossCaps
4 4.4uf Sonicaps
2 56uf Mundorf Aluminium Evo cap
2 7.5 ohm Mills.
I removed the small silver myca bypass caps.
These crosso er boards are very easy to solder on.

-
Thanks so much for the list.
John -
Later on another project I found out about solder wick. Made desoldering the old parts so so much easier as well as removing the old solder. Worked much better than my solder sucker.

Are the Dayton Audio caps the same as Sonicaps? If you search parts express that’s what comes up.
John -
I'm pretty sure they are not. Only place for Sonicaps is thier own website.

8 27uf Jantzen CrossCaps
4 4.4uf Sonicaps
2 56uf Mundorf Aluminium Evo cap
2 7.5 ohm Mills.
On the Mills resistors, 5, 10, or 12 watt?
John -
Wait not 47.
John -
I'm pretty sure I went 10 watt. Id go 10 or 12. Either should be fine.
FYI that 56uf Mundorf is huge.
-
-
But those are good electrolytics. I used them on my Infinities that needed a 1,600 uf vale and 600 uf value. Film in those values would have been astronomical in price.
-
The Jantzen CrossCaps are very affordable and available in large values.
-
Ordered them up!
Thanks for the pic of the Mundorf.
John -
Hell no Dayton caps are not Sonicap caps. Dayton and Bennic are the same though, you don't want either.Political Correctness'.........defined

Daytons= more $ for better amp lol.Don't take experimental gene therapies from known eugenicists.

No!
I'd go low Clarity before the dayton audio
Dayton audio is made by bennic IIRC. -
Good advise. I got the Sonicaps.

You'll save a lot of money over what my example above came out to, hopefully with not very much less performance. Those Jantzen and Mundorf caps have fairly decent ratings compared to Sonicap and Clarity CSA. http://www.humblehomemadehifi.com/Cap.htmlGeorge / NJ

Ducati makes caps?

No matter how you slice it, they are a huge improvement over 30 year old electrolytics.
You will very much enjoy the 12b. -
As you can see in my photo above, I had to make some leads so I could relocate that pop can of a cap to the middle.
-
Yes but they are attached to a gas tank that feeds 90° Of Desmodronic bliss. If I was really a motorcycle guy, I’d have one just to listen to it!Ducati makes caps?
