can one substitute a nonpolorized ceramic or mylar capacitor for polarized electrolytic capacitor. this is for an audio circuit. .01uf 250v.
 


I am recapping a Pioneer SX-750 receiver. it has about 10 of the tiny electrolytic caps that I can seem to find anywhere. even Digikey. I can find Mylar and Ceramic caps with this value.
