What help do you need?

Old electrolytics are usually a bad idea as they dry out and lose capacitance.

I'm scouting for a special type of caps. At present i'm using a green type that is the same one that i saw a few weeks ago but cannot remember where. Can that gentlemen get in touch with me. thank you

can you give details about what kind of caps you are searching for, and at least what for you want to use them, sure can find replacements, with at least same performances.

i think that's russian ÌÁÃÎ, i have some of them but they are not useful in audio aplicatins ? they were used in pasive crossovers , i have read somewhere that they are good as input caps but i dont think so.

old electronics is an bad idea i think

i think to use this in audio, esspecially in the audio input stage is the worst ideea which may have.
cannot use them as input caps. at least if you don't want that your amp to sound like !@#$%^.

just measure the capacitance between any terminal and case. you will see a high enough value. tents of nF and even uF for very large ones. if you connect the cap case to GND you will get a simple band-pass filter. the sound will be like telephone sound. if you leave-it unconnected, you will get a nice antenna on the input of the amp.

this caps are ment to be used in passive crossovers inside ancient loudspeakers, for shadded pole motors, power factor correction and some primitive industrial applications.

Someone from Nigeria offering Russian caps.......that sounds trustworthy...........didn't know that Nigeria is such a big exporter of electronic parts....oh, that's because it isn't. Let me guess....the price is also to good to be true.

Could be legit but do be careful.
