Replacement Crossover Caps Needed

[jacolucci]

Upgrading a EV Sx80PI speaker crossover and having a heck of a time finding 8 mfd/100v bipolar caps. Checked all the usual suppliers (Mouser, DigiKey, Allied, etc.) but no luck.

Appreciate any help or direction, thank you.

Replacement Caps Needed

Yes, thank you! I searched that vendor but got directed to a .eu site that wanted $30 for shipping. So many pop up adds and redirects makes for a frustrating search.

Thanks again!

You're welcome! If you are in the USA, it's a great resource.

8.2µF would be suitable replacements, the tolerance on electrolytics is not that great at the best of times so the difference between 8.0 and 8.2 is not significant.

Adding on what Mark said, a value of 8.2uf is the equivalent of an 8.0uf capacitor with a 2.5% tolerance; a 2.5% tolerance spec is still very good and very likely greater than the tolerance of the specs of the capacitors you are replacing.
