I am doing a full recap of these speakers and am wondering if these will improve on the Jantzen standard Z-cap and ClarityCap PX I already have in there. Anyone familiar with this brand? I also have 47uF 100V non polar Dayton brand electrolytics in there and am wondering if replacing with 47uF film would be wise.
What about the possibility that the famous branded capacitors might have drawbacks or limitations that make them less desirable than the Bevenbi products?
I doubt you can hear a difference from recapping if existing ones aren't out of spec. Besides, buying caps from eBay is probably not the best idea.
What about the possibility that the Bevenbi branded capacitors might have drawbacks or limitations that make them less desirable than the known industrial brands products that have a more or less guaranteed performance?

Altering the crossover network components can ruin the loudspeakers' sonic performance ( tonal balance ).....

We will kill off our own good quality producing western brands just to save a few pennies. And defend our choices by stating that the chinese products are good (Wima? Vishay? Bleh!!!) etc. while the only reason to buy them was their lower price 🙂 And their appearance of course. These guys know exactly what looks attract buyers.
Are you thinking about updating the xover? That would be worth it, otherwise, leave it as it is.

I came across these Bevenbi capacitors when I was modifying some Wharfedale crossovers. Sonically, they are roughly in the class of Bennic PP caps. Nothing special, standard Polypropylene cap made in China (maybe it's polyester too, you never know), but certainly better than bipolar electrolytic cap.
Altering speaker crossover can be both better and worse than the original, it all depends on who is doing it and what they are doing. Changing schematics without measuring equipment is practically a guarantee of failure.
In this case, I advise to do the upgrade as Troels did. Having had the opportunity to hear those speakers with original crossower, I think they need some super tweeter, from the back (backfire). The original tweeter just doesn't have a good range above 10kHz, it drops off too quickly.
