Bi-Polar cross over caps...

[dufo]

In looking for 4u7 caps for the G9...

I came across these caps that are yellow that have no other markings other than the value and voltage.

Are "Bi-polar speaker cross over" caps different to a standard polyester in anyway? Its very hard to tell what the composition is of these things with no markings...

Typical "bipolar" speaker crossover caps are bipolar electrolytics, usually fairly low dissipation factor for 'lytics, and usually a bit tighter tolerance as well.

If you could post a picture people on this forum could probably tell you what kind of caps they are.

Dufo,

if you post your location in your profile, more people will be able to help you with location-specific questions like sourcing..

The G9 caps should be polyester or polypropylene, NOT bipolars.
