Is STD series good enough? I take it that 10uf 100V can be replaced with 10uf 250V no problem, right?

Ill try to find all 7 capactiors that are on the ReQuest crossover and replace them with Black Gates.

Read this interesting Black Gate article by the finest Hifi Reviewer in the UK http://www.partsconnexion.com/t/blackgate/blackgate_Feb2003.pdf

BTW - the std series of Black Gate is still brilliant sounding even though it's the bottom of the range for that brand. It's still more transparent than any other makes. You should stick with the same values but 10UF 250V may work (not sure if it's wrong to use too high a voltage rating - sound quality may suffer).
