If you are replacing a damaged cap why not replace it with what the speaker came with? 3.0 uf solen, I would replace the same cap in both speakers so that they sound the same.

pajopajo · Nov 15, 2013

I have not found a 3 uF capacitor so good quality, so I thought to agree the value of the existing condenser with 3 capacitors of 1uF.
Of course I meant to change the capacitors in both speakers.
I found a capacitor of 3uF but was not so good quality

Does anyone have an idea that the capacitor of 3uF could replace the existing one, think of any manufacturer (Jantzen, AudynCap, Mundorf ...)

I agree with okeeteekid...
Solen caps are easy to find. You'll keep it original also....
Since this is rear EMIT, i would not go for expensive, high end caps...

I consider Solens high end. There is no benefit of using three 1mf over one 3mf.

dcmaster · Nov 19, 2013

I would prefer the 2 x 1.5 Audyn caps. Less is more. 1st The Audyn caps are very good quality and 2nd for the rear, it is actually not so important because that is not so elementary for the audiophile scene. The Rear is not a direct drive emit like the fronts.

I managed to find Solen capacitors, now I'm waiting for it to arrive. :music:

I found Solen capacitors 1.5uF, so I'll change the capacitors in both speakers.

Thanks for your answers
