Capacitor ID help needed

Greetings. I hope you are all well. I acquired a rather unique pair of speakers over the weekend. It appears they were made around 1981. I’m trying to figure out what the type of capacitor they used. It is a time aligned crossover. Am I going to mess it up if I replace the capacitor with a different type? Opinions on whether I should even change them? 

Thank you in advance for your wisdom

Are they giving you issues? I am not sure the exact type, but I would test them first before replacing. They appear to be film, maybe an electrolytic. Same values should be the only requirement.

@radtekman not giving any trouble that I can tell. The speakers sound fantastic as they are. I can’t imagine a recap making them any better. I think I’m going to leave well enough alone
