Good snag, nice post Ken.

Those caps can be a real pain in the butt to locate.

What are these caps commonly used for?

As in cap kits? No kiddin...I didn't think monitors needed any special
caps outside what is normally comenrcially avaliable. Is it the high
freq what's causing them to be scarse?

They are also typically found in "newer" monitors that this group hasn't
gotten around to be blessed by. When I say blessed I'm being very sarcastic.
Some newer monitors are total garbage.
