Hi Greg,
Mylar is a plastic film. Capacitors are made from it when they metalize one side of it.
An oriental "green cap" is also a metalized plastic-film capacitor and I have seen orangish-brown ones. 0.047uF is marked "473". 5% tolerance is marked "J". So you need capacitors marked "473J".

Hi Dhyne,
Last year, Con posted this good pcb layout:

Thanks for the info, Hero.

Sorry, i've got a couple of questions to ask.

Is this the right way to wire the stereo headphone? (Kindly see attachment)

Secondly, there is whining sound when i am using a headphone (with and without the mic attached). When i touched or moved my hand near the potentiometer, the whining sound became softer or disappeared.  Any idea what is the cause for it? (I am testing it on a breadboard)

Thanks, sparky

Yes.
Short the left and right channels together so both ears play in mono.

The long jumper wires of a breadboard pickup all kinds of interference and might cause the circuit to oscillate.
Use a compact stripboard layout or a compact pcb layout instead.

Thanks, sparky
