what in new manufacture that is inexpensive does well in CC application? I have MBGO on one K-horn but would like to try a film cap - or even electrolytic if "musical"

Fred,
You do know that using a single cap-in-line with a compression driver
is probably the worse sonic choice one could make (?)
With the above "bold" statement, what I mean is, expecting it to work as a crossover. Sonic bliss may be achieved through use of an active, analogue crossover, 18 db/oct, with x-over point chosen such to allow one full octave of linear response in the first octave of the stop-band. To protect from d.c. offset, a capacitor may be chosen to engage in action a full 2 octaves lower than the chosen crossover point of the active crossover.
As far as "value" is concerned, check out Clarity Cap ESA series.
in a typical "Klipsch-style" application as I'm playing with, employing a T2 autoformer attenuator fed by a capacitor from tap 4 downwards with output to the midhorn, I don't think its just one cap - but also the shunt characteristics of that autoformer - - I'll have to load one of those autoformers with a horn/driver combo then measure impedance on both sides of the input cap - Klipsch ran the K77/T35 type tweeter off tap 5 on the K-horn
