Some caps are directional, as these ones sound, make sure that you install them in the proper direction, they are usually labelled ar ask to be sure.

how would i know if htey are directional, and which direction would they need to go?

they don't have anything on the package mentioning direction, down the side of them there is a black stripe on one side and has square and an arrow > on it. would that indicate its directional? anyway to test it to find out?

220uF cap for rear:

http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F011%5F002%5F004%5F001&product%5fid=272%2D1017

forbidden, you've confused me by what you said:

"you can use a cap value of 260 mf to 150mf (crossover point of approx 150hz to 260hz), for the front speakers a value of 200mf to 100mf (crossover point of 200hz to 400hz) "

Does it mean this:

a 150uF cap will cross the signal at 150hz, the 260uF cap will cross at 260hz

but then this messed my mind up... a 200uF cap makes cover at 200hz, and the 100uF cap xover at 400Hz....

I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.
