There's no advantage to using multiple capacitors, unlike in a power supply where it could lead to faster discharge times. Bypass capacitors are not used in crossovers; their purpose is to reduce noise that is typically of a much different frequency than that affected by the main capacitor, once again such as in a power supply filter application. Capacitors serve many different purposes in electronics and you are confusing standard practices among different applications.
How many capacitors should I use and why?
Hello guys..planning to upgrade the crossovers in my Magnepans.I am about to order the capacitors and inductors.What I need to know ..are there any benefits from using mutliple capacitors to achieve the correct value.Or would it be as good to use one high quality capacitor of the correct value. Please explain the benefits/negatives of each . Also what are the benefits/negatives of using a small bypass capacitor with one capacitor of the correct value?
Thanks guys for any and all comments.
