Tom, can you confirm that in your view the most effective (both, sonically and economically) upgrade for 3.5s is the 8.2uf cap replacement in the tweeter feed?

magnet7 - yes, that 8uF tweeter blocking cap is the best bang for the buck. Psychoacoustically, its function range in the midrange and treble is where our hearing is most sensitive. 

jafant - the pleasure is mine. Good work here, guy.

magnet7 - my latest schematic (22dec'87) shows an 8uF (not 8.2) which had replaced the original 7uF spec.
