malaki ang pinagkaiba ng electrolytic caps versus film caps sa cross-over,
yung ecaps kasi natutuyan ng fluids di tulad ng mga film caps...
ngayon, between film caps, bahala ka na... ;)

I totally agree with master Tony, the difference bet el-cap & film/poly caps. Personally experience it in my x-over build. Personal opinion ko lang, the cost of upgrade should be relative to the value of the unit or speaker.

Hi guys, I'm just a newbie and going to setup my ht for the first time and going to buy the fronts first due to a limited budget. I would like to ask for your help what speakers are better wharfedale 10.7 or dali zensor 7? What avr should match them that has a bluetooth bec. I would like to play the music through my smartphone. The speakers will be used 60% for music and 40% for movies. I really love to listen to music with clarity and detail. My budget is 18k to 30k for the speakers and 20-25k for the avr. Would you also please let me know where I can find any dealers for dali and wharfs? And if it is not too much to ask, would you also please let me know any dealer that you know who can provide the best price? Thank you very much in advance for your help! Looking forward to hear from you! God bless!
