Hi folks, I just stuffed a couple of old Supergreen preamp PCBs, but the input coupling caps are too tall to fit in my 1U enclosure.
(They're 700v 10µF Vishay polypropylene film caps.)

I want to rack and test them now without ordering new film caps. Would it be better to use:

I want to rack and test them now without ordering new film caps. Would it be better to use:
- 10µF electrolytics, with the anodes oriented toward the input jacks (as in the Green mic pre.)
- or 2µ2 polyester film caps? I'm not sure how much low-end I'll be losing.
