Paul Carmody's Tarkus/cross over ?

Tony455

High new member, first diy. going to build the tarkus. Problem is I'm not sure about a capacitor value in the crossover as the sketches seem to be kind of blurry. There is a cap value 125 uf. Searching online they seem to be capicators for electric motors is this the correct value, or can I not see a point in there as in 1.25 uf. Terry

It is 125 uF for sure. I would definitely twist up a combination in parallel to get that 125 uF total before I'd invest crazy amounts of money to hit the value with a single. 50+50+25, 100+15+10, even 47+47+15+15 is close enough. Or there is this:

Yes, that 125uF, 100V non-polarized electrolytic will work just fine.

Yep, not the best resolution. Looks like 125uf to me. An npe would be cheaper. UFG and UKZ are Nichicon's high and premium Muse audio caps.

Thanks for the informatio gentelmen, never thought of combining to get that value.
