hey guys, im thinking of upgrading the crossover on a set of vintage yamaha ns-1000m speakers. assuming i would upgrade with the same value as original, i have 3 questions that i hope some mod gurus can enlighten me on.
1.would upgrading electrolytics to polypropylene present substantial benefits or should i stick to a modern well made electrolytic (eg Mundorf E-caps)
2.the crossover design on the yamaha ns-1000s is fairly complex comparatively as they use 6x 3.5uf in series for a total of 21uf with a 3.5uf in parallel. is there any benefits to the 6x3.5uf in series or can i use one 21uf instead?
3.if upgrading from original to polypro caps, what particular make should i use? im really liking these speaker so i wouldnt mind spending larger bucks if the sonic benefits are there.
thxs in advance
