8ohm speakers, Capacitance to block anything under 150hz thus:
C = 1/ (2* pi * R * fc)
C = 1/ (2* 3.14 * 8 * 150)
C = 0.00013269639066
C = 132.69639066 uF
Each side has 100uF & 33uF unpolarised capacitors in parallel inserted into the positive line to the speakers:
It didn't seem to make much difference to the sound, and there still appears to be distortion around the 12-13 volume level on the radio. Its entirely possible the calculations I did to select capacitance are off... they were based on some internet research months ago now.
Update - These were removed when the new radio went in, radio is now directly wired to the speakers.
