Normally I'd have said all you need to do if you have any concerns over the caps in your M100-2s, or their performance, would be to head to Beoparts and buy the correct capacitor kit for them.

However, Martin doesn't appear to do one for them that I can see.

I do wonder how these would compare to the legendary Tandberg studio monitors

I bought the kit from Martin a couple of years ago and they transformed my M100-2's - he boards when I had finished looked similar to the ones in the photo here and I had to double up some capacitors. I managed it with Martins instructions.

Congratulations on your speakers - I love mine, they are superb.
