RE: DC LINK capacitors in Speaker Crossovers

Posted by Tre' on March 11, 2017 at 16:19:51:
And filtering transients - why would you do that to your signal?

The so called DC link caps are just metalized polypropylene caps with some features that are good for pulse work.

They should work just fine for speaker crossovers.

BTW all caps will filter out transients when connected from the signal to ground. That's what caps do.
