Hi
I need help since i am a complete debutant in DIY audio.
I wish to upgrade the capacitor in a pair of Meridian M2 active louspeaker, the speakers are pretty old now, but still sounding awesome thanks to the active crossover and biamp. They are IFF 6800µF 36V 10a. I wish to put the highest quality possible in order to have an efficient sound upgrade. After some search i found these "THEL-Elkos " http://www.thel-audioworld.de/bauteile/elkos/elkos.htm
they are 22000µF 63V. As I am completly debutant in DIY, i wonder if its ok since i know that higher capacitance means faster signal. At first I wanted to put 47000µF but none of the model i found would fit the rear of the Meridians. The original size of the IFF 6800µF are 4cm diameter and 7.5 cm long so the THEL Elkos will fit in. In the other hand some 5cm diam. caps are simply too big to fit in. thanks for any advice.
Also i wish to upgrade other parts like transistor or any other efficient part in the soundwise quality. But since I know very few I dont know what to ask. Thanks.
