Hi!
I posted a thread about identifying caps of my Zoom 9000 guitar effect where I mentioned a JBL speaker I'm trying to help my friend with. I haven't gotten any answers to that thread but I have a question regarding the cap in the speaker, so I thought I'd ask it separately.
The cap is marked 100uf 25V. I have found a set of caps on Amazon that I think will cover the caps of the guitar effekt but it doesn't have any 100uf 25V. It does have a 100uf 16V though. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere on this forum that 25V can sometimes be replaced with 16V...but I can't find that thread again.
This is part of the schematic I have found of the speaker.

The cap I'm replacing is C505 on the left side. It has shorted and I'm guessing that that is what blew the U500 chip.
The speaker uses a 19V charger...so I'm guessing a 16V cap is not preferred...but can it work? At least for a while? I don't know if the cap and chip is the only fault in the speaker so I'm trying to keep costs at a minimal until I know for sure.
Cheers!
