search for values of Canton crossover capacitors based on its serial numbers has introduced me to this topic and this nice forum - thank you all people for all your efort time and will to make such a usefull topic!
 
For anyone interested, here's a photo of the Canton Ergo 100DC crossover (didn't want to take it, so I tried to capture the ID numbers separately)

By looking at the components, I find it rather hard, economically speaking to replace the red CAPS, those are Electrolytic 6440 = 470µF x3, going MKT would cost more than the speakers themselves and would require a separate chamber. Also these 3 capacitors, I'm guessing soldered in parallel, are mostly used a subsonic filter, the so called DC technology used by canton.

The black Cap is 1664 = 100µF/35vac, also electrolytic (not sure what exactly, but this could be changed for MKT).
The white square (I guess one going to the tweeter) cap is 2856 = 4.7µF/100v - MKT foil, probably no need to change that.

If I were to change anything, probably check ESR for each and try to get the best Electrolytic CAPs available, but I doubt I'd get the factory quality.

The 6700 coil is massive and I haven't seen the values in the list. Also no specs for the smaller 6590 (although there's a 6591 in the list).

All in all the Crossover of the Ergo 100DC is quite different from what I've seen in this thread, although the speakers are quite similar to the Ergo R-CL and all the Ergo Series.

Additionally to my post above I'm adding a photo of the Mid-range crossover found in the Ergo 100DC, it's shared with Ergo90 model.

The bigger coil is 3000 = FK52-350-10 = 3.50mH / 1.0 mm.

The caps are (both MKT foil):

1. Yellow one - 5868 = 18µF/100v
2. Black one - 2390 = 100µF/100v
 
Hello. I'm new to the forum. Need help from forum members. I have Canton Ergo 611 DC speakers, but the previous owner made changes to the crossovers for himself. I want to restore the factory crossover. The bass crossover is especially damaged. Maybe there is a diagram or photo of this bass crossover?
P.S. It seems the Canton 695 bass crossover is the same as mine. Thank you. Max

There is a photo of the original 611 basscrossover, but the connection of the capacitors, resistors and inductors is not visible. Is no one going to help?
