marems Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Ok so I have started the great journey on the xover cap and resistor upgrade mod for the forte and have some questions. I'm only going to replace the caps and resistors Im leaving the inductors alone for I have read to do just that....I have started to do some research on different brands of caps. I'm not wanting to spend a ton of money, but I would love to get the best bang for the buck... I found some janzten Z superior caps from parts express. I have read some reviews on them and they got pretty good reviews, does anyone have any experience with these in klipsch speakers?? Also I can't find any mills 40 ohm resistors, where can I get some?? Also should the woofer roll off cap be replaced as well??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingfield Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Check Madisound. I used ClarityCaps in my round cup Fortes. I didn't replace the resistor, coils, or inductor. I did replace the woofer shunt cap with a Bennic 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
