Your best bet would be just to take a woofer or two out and look at the boards directly as there are occasions where the schematics are wrong. I know, I know....who would have ever thought a manufacturer would fudge their specs and diagrams or change them along the way. 
I would imagine those have pretty decent capacitors on them. I know when I was working on my ads L1230's, they had mylar caps and are usually good to go. I still replaced them, for some reason, with new Mundorf's along with Mundorf resistors. Looking back, I should have just changed the resistors of which most were out of spec by big margins and the caps were really ok.

Yep. Always pull the crossover to verify cap values.
My 5se has much better caps than my 3se. The 3se used electrolytic caps. The 5se did not and they did not require recapping. Your 11se may not require recapping either. You could test the FR of the speakers with a RTA to see if they are still within spec. I don't test caps. I test speakers.
