I have a set of Clarity Caps MR capacitors (2.2µF 630V, Ref: MR2u2H360Vdc).
Does one of you know if "outer foil" is the LEFT or the RIGHT pin of the cap when reading the "Clarity Caps brand logo" on the blue external envelope of the cap ?
This will help me to correctly position the caps on the printed circuit !
Thanks very much,

I have used SA grade long before MR grade existed, the only problem with Clarity Caps is they can be a little dark in the upper ranges,If you have a bright tweeter it will tame it down some. A good choice for the Mission 762i with the 1 inch Vifa soft dome.
I found a better cap for tweeters,they have less roll off in the upper end. http://www.parts-express.com/wizards...FG&srchMfg=261
