AR2a Speakers

[Notnilc]

Hello All, I recently picked up a pair of AR2a for the price of $0. I’m about to replace the old wax packed capacitors. From what I’m reading I need a 4uf and 6uf per cab. However, when I attempted to purchase them from parts express they only had a 6.2 UF cap.

My question is what caps should I install and what brand? Are the basic Dayton caps suffice?

hope you’re all doing well.

Those Dayton caps are what I personally would use in the same situation. I use Daytons for most of my speaker projects. The 6.2uF are well within tolerance.

Thanks Tim D. I figured as much. But I didn’t want to make assumptions.
