Crossover Parts - INDIA

[paranoid06]

Hi, I'm keen to build a passive crossover for my 3-Way Hi-Fi System.
I've attached the pic in which i got the values of the Caps and Inductors of the Crossover.
I got the values from 3-Way Crossover Designer / Calculator
I live in Mumbai and i want to know where I can get these parts in the schematic.
I can also order online via credit card but i don't know retailers!
Help is appreciated!!

Thanks and Regards
Mark

Those are nonstandard values (17.93uF ??) and you will not get them anywhere.
You should probably start by reading this: Preferred number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Then you can head over to Lamington Road where all manner of caps and coil can be had for the asking.

p.s. Some people find the all-caps INDIA in the subject line offensive. I've seen someone complain in the past.

yajnaS,
I found your info on the e_number interesting.

Do you mean you are? Sorry, you are complaining with no reason.

I know that it isnt a standard value.
But I don't know where I will get heavy duty inductors in Lamington. Visha Electronics has small resistor sized inductors.
And w.r.t caps, what types should i use??

When it comes to capacitors with odd values it is better to round it off to the nearest value..You may find some odd values in polyester caps which are more expensive and i have managed to get some of them here in Chennai.
as far as inductors is concerned it is the same story here..they have tiny resistor sized inductors which are unsuitable in a crossover because of very bad DCR values..however you can use some inductor winding applications on the net to determine the inductor winding specs and have it custom made by your local winder ,that has worked fine for me

Thanks for the inductor idea....I had actually thought about it! Will metal film capacitors work for a crossover?

Change in plan!

Using Active Crossover....

Thank you for all your replies
