Restoring two University speakers. Could someone identify these old capacitors with good modern replacements part number? Also, would they be polarity specific? Thanks.

Crossover capacitors should be nonpolar, polarity usually isn't a factor.

Looks like 2uf and 120uf.

A picture of the whole crossover would be good.
 
First two are 2uFd, 50V. Third is 120uFd, 50V. Can't tell on the last one. They should be available from Parts Express. All capacitors for crossovers should be bi-polar.
