Capacitor identification please

[andyrlb]

Morning all.
You’ll probably confirm that I do have a screw lose when you read this .
I have my Tannoy SRM12x speakers that I recapped back in January with equal value Ansar supersound capacitors , and gave them 3 months of daily usage to burn in but I was never happy with the sq so 2 weeks ago I put all the old capacitors back in and hey presto the magic was back , some had strayed from 6.8uf to 7.1uf ( I tested them all when I initially removed them ) . So I now have all 8 identical nos caps on their way to me ( they’re Philips) but I need to get 2 identical ones seen in the picture, there is no brand name on them , they measure 27mm x 8 or 9 mm and have 2.2 J 100 printed on them ( and the little wave thing )
Anyone know this brand ?
Ps : I am fully aware that I can replace them with similar ones .

They look to me like 2.2Ohm 100v MKT caps. Others opinions may vary.

2.2uf 100v - Most likely polyester.

The difference between 6.8uF and 7.1uF is so small in value as to not be worth bothering about.

Ah now that’s what I was hoping to hear , Geoff to the rescue as always. Cheers

Any idea why they sounded bad ( or not as good )with the allegedly quality supersound caps ?
