for 13uF I'll probably use 12.5uF 370vac ASC and would like a motor run cap for 2uF - is there anything good currently available in 2uF?

These guys have McIntosh surplus, and 2uF oil caps for reasonable money.

thanks - even w. $10 shipping, buying a few wouldn't be too much - wonder how old their stock might be? (they have 1000ft of 18 wire for $49

The 2uf are the easiest to find.

Bob Crites was using the GE motor run in his Klipsch Crossovers. You could contact him and he would help you find some. He might even sell you a couple.

I did a quick search and found this. Not affilated with the seller but it would seem that the seller has a bunch of them.

Did the Klipsch X/O's use polarized capacitors?

Make sure it does not have a series fuse..., posted on October 29, 2009 at 10:59:51
