Most of the JBL have Elytone Electrolytic caps on the crossovers Networks.

7 years with my speakers is time for an Upgrade. Does any one have any Brand in particular to work well with JBL.Anything better than Elytone caps?

Should I stick with Electrolytics or better with polypropylene caps?

Any advice would be Appreciated.

You could fill a phone booth full of phone books and barely scratch the surface on the discussions had on forums about crossover caps. Solen, mundorf, wondercap, auricap.....the list goes on.

Polypropylene, Paper in Oil, Teflon, Mylar.....

But one thing is GENERALLY agreed, almost any of these is better than electrolytics.
