I have an original set of Event 20/20 bas self-powered monitors which started making a hum on one side. I removed the amplifier assembly and noticed one of the filter capacitors is bulging a bit. I replaced the filter caps on a set of self-powered Tannoy's several years ago with excellent advice from this group so I thought I'd ask again.

The original caps are Rubicon C E 63V 10000 uF (M), unsure what the 'M' is for. Perhaps if someone could steer me towards a particular brand/type which would be suitable. I wasn't successful using the DigiKey filters to locate a suitable replacement. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Find something of the right mechanical size here. Digikey are a good
supplier

Thanks Don. I've been playing with the various filtering options and perhaps narrowed it down somewhat. Although I'm not that familiar with the various mounting techniques. How would I narrow the selection to 2 wires that you solder and clip? Mostly I see these snap on type capacitors. Thanks.


You won't get 'wires' for this size cap. Select "Snap-on" and your other
criteria (capacitance, voltage, and size) and Bob's your uncle.
