50wpa - C15,17 Replacement part equivalent #50wpa

I have lost/misplaced the 2 .33uf caps for my 50wpa kit and am looking at replacements.
Is this an equivalent substitute? or is there another specification I am unaware of?

(from the manual)


These are called 'blocking' capacitors by Hans in the assembly manual- is that the same as a coupling capacitor as they allow AC current to pass, but block DC?

Thanks,

Hi Chas

The actual 0.33uF capacitors used in the 50W PA come from Digikey and are part number 1572-1218-ND - they currently have large stock for immediate shipment and shipping is $4.99 as usual.
