Best Capacitors for Crossovers

I am now in the tweaking stage of trying different caps in my crossovers for my DIY homemade 2 way. I presently have and will soon try a 5.6uf 800 vdc +/- 2% Jantzen Audio Silver Z-cap.

I see that Mundorf, V Cap get a lot of accolades, and the Dueland are quite pricey.

Does anyone have a favorite?

I am trying to cross over at about 4500HZ at 6db.

When rebuilding my Dynaudio S25,s I posted this question on DIY forum and Eric recommended I try the Murdoff MPK,s , I took his advice for the mids and for the tweeters I used the VCap TFTF and CUTFs along with replacing the sand resistors with Mills with great success.

Thank you Eric for the recommendation.
