I would like to replace the electrolytic coupling capacitors in my pre-amp and DSP but I have too little room on the boards for big poly caps. Anyone know of any small decent caps I could use? They currently use 4.7uF@50v between NE5532s (changed from 4558s). Would it be useful to use small value, high-grade bypass caps across the electrolytics?
Hi,
is the pre a valve (tube) type or opamps?
If opamps then you don't need 50V cap rating.
A metallised plastic film is better than any exotic electrolytic. But they are usually bigger.
Search the catalogues to find something that fits.
BTW 4.7uF in that 7mm package is very small. You will struggle to find anything smaller.
