Need Crossover!

I can use larger than needed cap values right?


For instance, rather than a 4.7 uF cap I could use a 5 uF cap correct?


I asked this because I would not mind using the ICW Clarity Caps from DIY Cable.

For this application, you shouldn't use larger than needed caps. Changing the cap values changes the crossover frequency. However, small differences (such as 4.7 uF to 5 uF) won't make a huge difference.
