For the 2x12 Omni Top loaded with compression drivers, the low pass filter requires a 14uf capacitor. I cannot seem to find one of these, ANYWHERE. Am I missing something here?

These can just be added in line like that? I wasn't aware of that.

I actually just found some 14uf capacitors. It took some heavy searching though. lol.

Click me!!

So the farads just add up? I figured they would multiply...

Just connect them in parallel and they'll be 14uf.

Or use a 15uF, it's within 10%.
