In Reply to: What would happen if I upped the uf value of an audio path capacitor posted by airtime on January 4, 2016 at 15:47:29:
Hello,
Standard electrolytics are not great for this application. Changing the cap to a bi-polar electrolytic will cut the distortion to about 25% as much. Search for articles by Cycil Bates if want to get gory details, believe it was articles 4 & 5 that address electrolytics. Believe they are still posted on Linear Audio magazine website.
As audio signals are AC, using a bi-polar helps. Also if size can be fit in a larger uf cap will give better low end response. 47uf is large enough that low end isn't being effected much with usual in and output impedances. (10k ohms and up)
