Me too, I ate one sour too.
Hi,
I have just taken delivery of a pair of Hovland Musicaps as replacements for the 20+ year old electrolytics in my EPOS ES14 Speakers. I haven't done any soldering for a very long time and having had a look at the inside of the speakers, I have a couple of Q's about their fitting:
1, Looking at the size of the cables, I'm figuring a 50w/480c iron and some lead free solder will be required. Am i right?
2, The caps have a plain wire and one with a blue stripe on. Caps aren't usually directional IME, but are these extortionately expensive ones different?
3, I can see no rating on the existing cap on the speaker, however I have assumed 3.0/100v and ordered accordingly. Anyone know if this is correct?
very grateful if anyone can advise on the above.
thanks
