Tweeter Capacitor


A question for experts,

On my tweeter Esotar T330d I currently have an in serial a Alumen Z cap of 6,8µF,To match with the quality of the tweeter I am hesitating between a Duelund CAST Cu or a Milflex KPCU 03,the Milflex Cap has the same level of quality as Duelund?

That's along with OP, there is a very good reason for the frequency collector .1 or 01uf to be added along with the 6.8uf. That copper bypass is a real good choice. They are directional too. The arrow towards the - or away from the +. It will work either way, the difference is the outside of the cap wrap vs the inside. They can make noise, I've never heard it though.

It's easy on a large cap. Just get a DMM and see which leg has less resistance when the other probe is on the outside of the cap. That is the way out on ALL non-polarized caps..
