AR-14 speaker cap values?

[savv]

Can anyone confirm that the AR-14 has two 8microfarad caps and one 2microfarad cap in its crossover?

I have one half-way across the globe which I would like to recap.

Thanks.

I'll check at lunch if nobody has piped up by then.

AR-14 Crossover

The picture I've added shows the AR-14 crossover from the 1977 version (2nd generation) of the speaker. It uses one 16mfd and one 20mfd cap.

No worries...replacements (Solens) are just out of view and ready to walk the walk and talk the talk...so to speak...

Are you sure its a 20mfd and not 2mfd? Isn't that connected to the tweeter? I recall distinctly that it was 2mfd.
