Title: Dirtbaby 2015, non polar electrolytics?
Post by: ImNotThrasher on February 12, 2016, 04:26:45 PM
Hi guys, Im bulding the dirtbaby 2015, C3; C33 are 2.2uf Non-Polar Electrolytics, anyone knows if I can replace them with Film or Monolithic Ceramic caps with the same result? I know that I can put two polar electrolytics with the double of the value making a non-polar cap, but if the circuits works just with Monolithic it will be awesome.

As long as the value is 2.2u it doesn't matter soundwise, looking at the board space is a consideration 2.2u film caps are huge.

Yeah, I did something wrong with an order and got some huge caps.  I've got to pay attention next time. :)
