Best Capacitors for Crossovers

@dgarretson Technically, it is only a conflict of interest when you serve two masters. Promoting your own wares over another may be biased, but not a conflict of interest. :)

For instance, if you were being paid by a rag/mag to do "unbiased" research on capacitors, but were also being paid by Clarity, that’s a clear conflict of interest, especially if undisclosed.

I have a 3rd order filter for some of the most revealing tweeters in the world on the way, the Mundorf AMTs. I’ll post when I have them in circuit.

They behave practically as if they are massless and are easy to integrate with drivers thanks to a very smooth frequency response and flat impedance above resonance.

Yep. Sorry my friend. Temperature controlled soldering iron with a large tip FTW!! :)

I should have added, this is the soldering station I use, from Aoyude. Includes various sized tips, which have been a god-send. Cheaper kits don't usually include extra tips. Hakko is the usual standard for soldering stations, but I think Parts Connexion may a knock-off even cheaper. Just make sure you get a variety of tips.

But for your testing, I'd really encourage you to stay away from soldering. :) Screw down terminals will be fine.
