I have an old speaker pcb which requires a 22uf 100v non polarised capacitor. I’m finding it difficult to source one. Can anyone advise where I can buy one or an alernative replacement.

Thanks
John

I’m replacing a non polarised 22uf 100v capacitor and wondered if a bipolar with the same values would work in a similar manner. It’s used on a speaker pcb with two large 8 ohm speakers and two tweeters. The pcb has two transformers and two np capacitors. The other capacitor is a 3.3uf.

You cannot use a standard electrolytic capacitor in this application. You need a capacitor which can handle an AC voltage across it. This would destroy an electrolytic capacitor.
