I've just replaced the Caps in my modified Valencia crossovers with the "latest" Cap from Wima ! It's called a "GTO" cap. These are high quality fast Pulse caps.

Wima and Kemet makes a version of these cap. They usually sell for around #50. ea. I bought a bunch of the branded as Acrotronic. These are
4.5uF 1200vDC 65A. caps.

What they have done for my Valencia's and my Altec/JBL 2-way MLTL speakers has been a revelation ...

View shows GTO's with Wima Bypasses..

Have fun
