I suppose a better question is, when is it not OK to use a higher voltage than original? I know with non-polarized capacitors for use in speaker crossovers, they say higher voltage caps simply allow ...

They should have at least sacrifice one capacitor, testing its polarities before soldering the whole roll of capacitors on the motherboards... Because if one is wrong polarity meaning the whole roll ...

The diaphragm of a condensermicrophone is the movable plateof a capacitor. With a polarized capacitor,the vibration of the diaphragm inrelation to the back plate produces anac audio-output voltage.

Although there are other technologies competing for the same market – most notably polymer and hybrid polymer capacitors – electronics design engineers feel comfortable with electrolytics. They know ...
