Bi-Polar Electrolytic Crossover Capacitors: Mundorf and Jantzen

Fellow hifiers,
In this video Nick talks us through the differences in the Mundorf and Jantzen Bi-Polar Electrolytic Capacitors (that may be used in a crossover circuit, for example) and why you might choose one over the others for your system! (or even why you may pick a combination of the lot!)

Can you Cut open the Mundorf to view the inside can ?

[@RCALivingStereo]

Can you use any lytic cap in a cross over as long as it’s the same volts and rating ?
Or do you need to use a actual cap named cross over only?
Wasnt sure if you can use any or they need to be the same :)

[@hificollective]

Hi Turkeydoodlers, no it is best to replace with an equivalent bi-polar / non-polar electrolytic capacitor!

[@sohans8735]

Can somebody Please Tear down the Mundorf Silver cap & Show us all whether Mundorf Silver cap is really using Pure Silver Foil inside. Is it real or Fake ? Video Please..

[@roxy_xcxc6869]

🤔Pls cut it out Mundorf Capacitor MPK Alum or SilverGold crossection video have too?

[@MrsZambezi]

What is the ESR of the typical Mundorf and Jantzen crossover electrolytic, say 10uF?

[@monzarace]

Maybe there's acap in your microphone that you need to change, pref. low esr, as the signal is very low - can't hear much really.
Cheers.

Can you Cut open the Mundorf Silver Gold Cap to view the inside can ? Is it real Pure Silver Foil or basically just a Fake Foil ? Video have ! ( Surely u will have Billion of Billion of Viewer in your UA-cam)

[@konstantinost3185]

You're kidding, right?
It's just the leads Silver, not the foil.
