Granny,
Yes I ave used this technique and it defiantly improves the SQ of a Bipolar Electrolytic Capacitor. All capacitors in a Speaker Crossover should be Bipolar as this is an AC circuit. If you google this there are many diagrams on how to connect the circuit, and you are describing it correctly, you must however use a separate feed from the battery to each set of capacitors - luckily 1M Ohm resistors are very inexpensive.
One small correction to above post - since you are connecting the capacitors in series each should have a value of 2000uF, a series connection of capacitors results in half the value of each - i.e 2000uF in series with 2000uF = 1000uF
