Hi everyone,
Recently I purchased a pair of Klipsch KG 2's built in 89. I like the way they sound, but I'm wondering if they could sound better if I change the caps on the crossovers. One of the caps is an electrolytic, for the LoF, the other 2 are metallized polypropylene for the HiF. I have always heard it's a given to change an electrolytic cap when you see one. My question is, is it worth it to replace the metallized poly caps too, or is there little if anything to be gained? Do metallized poly caps have a longer life span? I appreciate and welcome all opinions. Thanks!
