Description

The Jantzen Cross Cap (low-value range) is a budget-friendly film capacitor designed for crossover networks where small capacitance values are required — particularly in high-pass filters for tweeters or trap notch filters.

Though entry-level, the Cross Cap delivers clear performance and stability far beyond electrolytic caps in terms of sound quality and lifespan.

🔧 Key Specs:

  • Capacitance Range: 0.10 – 1.80 µF

  • Tolerance: ±5%

  • Voltage Rating: 400 VDC

  • Dielectric: Metallized polypropylene foil

  • Type: Non-polarized, axial leads

  • Loss Factor (ESR): Moderate — better than electrolytics, higher than Z-Caps

🎧 Sound Characteristics:

  • Clearer and more accurate than budget bipolar electrolytics

  • Slightly soft top-end compared to higher-tier Z-Caps

  • Stable tone, decent transient handling, low distortion at this price point

✅ Recommended For:

  • Tweeter crossovers in budget or DIY 2-way speakers

  • Notch filters for resonance control

  • Replacement for small-value electrolytics in older speaker designs

PRODUCT FEATURE
The Cross Cap is offering a high-level of performance and quality at a very reasonable price point.
A great multipurpose entry-level audiophile capacitor.
A single foil (standard type MKP/PP foil) construction that uses a good quality aluminum and zinc based metalized polypropylene foil.
Available in a very wide range of capacitance values.
Virtually free of distortion and delivers a pleasant and rather neutral sonic profile.

TECHNICAL DATA
Capacitor foil: Polypropylene foil metalized with Zinc (Zn) and Aluminium (Al)
Dielectric insulation: Polypropylene film
Terminal leads: Tinned 4N copper wire
Voltage rating: 400 VDC / 250 VAC
Working Temperature Range: -40C to + 85C
Capacitance tolerance: +/- 5%
Loss factor at 1 kHz (maximum)
• C< l uF : 5 * 104
• C> l < 20 μF : 105
• C> 20 μF : 105
Insulation resistance at 1 kHz
• C < l μF : 5 * 104 MOhm
• l < 20 uF : 3 * 104 MOhm
•C > 20 uF : 104 MOhm

⚖️ Compared to Higher-End Jantzen Models:

Feature Cross Cap (0.10–1.80 µF) Superior Z-Cap Silver Z-Cap
Sound Quality Basic, clear enough Open, detailed Ultra-transparent, fast
Clarity & Depth Acceptable High Exceptional
Price $ $$$ $$$$
Application Budget tweeters/notches High-end tweeters/mids Reference-grade tweeter use

💡 Bottom Line:

For cost-sensitive designs needing small capacitance values in high-frequency sections, the Cross Cap 0.10–1.80 µF offers a solid step up from electrolytics without the premium price of audiophile-grade caps.
