I have a pair of Canton CT 2000's and one of the speakers is losing its highs. I want to replace the caps but don't know which they are. Can anyone look at this photo and tell me which components go with the tweeter? BTW the wires to the tweeter are the white ones in the middle- the gray ones on the left go to the midrange and the white ones on the right go to the woofer.

You need to show the solder side of the PCB, too, so we can see how the parts are connected.
Most likely the components for the tweeter are the ones on the left in the photo. The red one that says 4,7 µF is a capacitor that could belong to the tweeter. The black one that says 10 µF could also belong to it, but don't nail me on that one. The 2R2 resistor is probably part of the tweeter's crossover and one (2096) or both of the coils next to the two capacitors. Turn the PCB around and follow the traces from the tweeter backward to find the relevant components. How does "losing its highs" sound? Is it continuous or intermittent? Did you check all solder joints and the wires? Could it be the tweeter itself that is failing? Is there an additional component in the wire from the crossover to the tweeter, e.g. a fuse or a PTC?

Thanks, this is good confermation... Tony Gee said it is probably the 4.7 as well. It will do no harm to replace it along with the resistor. He recomended Mundorf- which I dearly love the sound of.

BTW- losing the highs = one speaker always has less trebble than the other; even if I switch speaker wires. There is sound coming out, but not as pronounced as the other speaker.
