BEST HARMLESS/SIGNATURELESS SPEAKERS CAPACITORS.

Main speakers are older Joseph audio perspective not current perspective 2. I have not altered those yet and don't know if I ever will. The speakers I have been playing with caps are LSA Statements floorstanders. LSA had 3 versions standard, signature and statement, the statement has ribbon tweeters. I've owned these LSA's for 15 or more years and always enjoyed them. After adding new caps they are now much better speakers. I also have some Usher tiny dancer and some GR Research hot rodded monitors which are the speakers that got me interested in changing caps. I've not had any fatiguing issues with Z's even with ribbon tweeter. 

Dear @paulcreed  : You said that are waiting a wima caps quote for your needs. I don't know which values you need but Mouser has the MKP 10 in 10uf, 6.8uf, 4.7uf and many standard values and you have not to wait for a quote because you buy on line through its site. Did you look your needs at Mouser?

Talked to mouser few days ago only cap they have 6.8 which is for bass driver and mid driver in 2.5 crossover. Tweeter caps for me are 8.2 and 4.7 and 1.5 for rear firing tweeter. Maybe I'll replace 6.8 for the hell of it just to see only cost a few bucks, honestly would be surprised if it sounded better than Clarity cap. 

Dear @paulcreed : Here what you can buy at Mouser:

that are 1.5uf 1000vdc (600vac. ) 10% tolerance ( does it not matters for a test. )

and the 8.2uf you can have it with a 4.7uf plus a 3.3uf in parallel, solved:

Dear friends: I finish my tests evaluations with the Wima caps in my tweeters and band-pass speakers crossovers.

I said finish because I received from Mouser the precise wima caps values I need for, so I’m not listen any more to parallel/series caps but single cap on each position.

I have to say that today Wima is the best harmless and signatureless cap I experienced first hand in my system These Wima caps are dead neutral/colorless and does not adds any " artefacts " I can be aware off and does not needs weeks or months to settle down only a few hours from new.

Between today and tomorrow I will try to change the the caps in the mid range crossovers: 16.8uf and will see what happens down there.

Btw, with the tweeters Wima caps happened something that in the past happened too when I added the super-tweeters in my system : the most notorious listened improvement with the ST was a better bass range and soundstage definition.
