choice of midrange cap?


Aloha Fellow 'Goners,
Presently looking at a 1.0 uf Mundorf Oil and Silver or (yikes!)Duelund cap for my top of the line Fostex horn tweeter. Mid range vintage JBL horn driver uses 40 uf. What cap recommendations could you give me for this value that would be more down to earth $$$ wise yet still compliment the top end? This is a 3-way horn system with sub.

Also, what sonic complications are caused by say mixing a 25uf with a 15uf to make up 40uf since many manufacturers don't make 40's in certain compositions? Thanks for any guidance on this topic.

Kirkus: That's good to hear as I was concerned that time smear would result from "by-passing" a 25uf cap with a 15uf to achieve 40uf. Thanks
Johnk: I see that Clarity has three versions. Any noticeable difference between them in your applications?

Guys: How do the voltage ratings come into play? I like the thought of using a lower voltage value to take advantage of the thinner di-electric. Also, in the case of the high end caps, the cost savings are very substantial. FYI, the amp would be less than 35W.

Thanks
