The 2.5uF value was available from Solen when I was prototyping the XO. I've since settled on Jantzen Z-Superiors. I've just popped open my E-IXs and can confirm the value I'm using for the free-space version is 2.7uF.Update: Just checked the Janzen site and they don't list a 2.5uF, so I assume that 2.2uF is a substitute - is there any benefit it paralleling a ~0.3uF cap to get closer to the ideal?
Apologies for the confusion. I don't think there are many free-space builds of the E-IX. I hope Martin and Stefan can swap out the caps without too much hassle.
