Hi All,
I have been having a hard time trying to find some 200uf 100V capacitors for my cars Polk Speakers. Is there any source on line to purchase these? I have found 2 sources but the shipping makes them out to be $20 for just 4 of them!
Any recommendations?

Thanks!

have you tried Radio Shack yet?
A good online source is Parts Express.
www.partsexpress.com

Forgot to mention, sometimes radio shack can order special parts for you.

$20 for four 200uf audio quality caps?  That's really cheap.  I've paid as much as $50 APIECE for high-quality caps that size.  Make sure your pricing is for AT LEAST non-polarized caps rated at 100V or better.

Actually I had checked out parts express. I was unfamliar with going prices for these things. ALl I know is I didnt want to spend 9.95 on a single 'bass blocker' that was just a capacitor. These are 100V non-polarized from partsexpress.com. Ill go over and order them right now. Thanks a lot for the replies!
