 +The amplifier for the speakers is located inside of the left speaker. In case you want to replace the capacitors on the amplifier PCB, the specifications are as follows: 
 + 
 +^ Identifier  ^ Type                  ^ Capacitance  ^ Voltage  ^ Diameter  ^ Length  ^          
 +| C155        | electrolytic, radial  | 1 µF         | 50 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C157        | electrolytic, radial  | 47 µF        | 10 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C158        | electrolytic, radial  | 220 µF       | 10 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C160        | electrolytic, radial  | 2200 µF      | 10 V     | 10 mm     | 20 mm   | 
 +| C255        | electrolytic, radial  | 1 µF         | 50 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C257        | electrolytic, radial  | 47 µF        | 10 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C258        | electrolytic, radial  | 220 µF       | 10 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C260        | electrolytic, radial  | 2200 µF      | 10 V     | 10 mm     | 20 mm   | 
 +| C351        | electrolytic, radial  | 47 µF        | 10 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C352        | electrolytic, radial  | 10 µF        | 50 V     | 5 mm      | 10 mm   | 
 +| C353        | electrolytic, radial  | 1000 µF      | 16 V     | 10 mm     | 16 mm   |

 +There is an additional capacitor inside of each speaker, in line between the main driver and the tweeter. The specifications are as follows: 
 + 
 +^ Identifier  ^ Type                         ^ Capacitance  ^ Voltage  ^ Diameter  ^ Length  ^          
 +| N/A         | bipolar electrolytic, axial  | 1 µF         | 50 V     | 6 mm      | 17 mm   |
  
 +**Note:** bipolar electrolytic capacitors of this type are somewhat hard to find. Alternatively, a polypropylene film capacitor should make a suitable replacement and may, in fact, offer superior audio characteristics.(([[https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/mystery-capacitor.165017/|Mystery Capacitor]]. //diyAudio//.
