The only clarity caps worth using are the MR/CMR.  At least for full range duty.  For mids and below the CSA series are good.

Edit: I like their new PUR series too.

More importantly than just a value for value parts upgrade is an upgrade that fixes the response issues and keeps the drivers from playing on top of each other.

Getting those steal parts and fuse, on the back panel, out of the signal path goes a long way too.

Great to find this step by step guidance with photos on upgrading the Maggie 1.7i crossover.
What a kind information!!
I wished a lot, but never had a courage to do it for myself.
Now with this guidance, I seem to manage do do it.
As a further assistance, I wonder if anyone could provide a tip as to how to remove the aluminum side stiles.
That seems a last hurdle in deciding the upgrade.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
