Electrocube Caps

Seraph · 25th December 2007, 04:13 PM

Peace on earth my good brethren with warm greetings and best wishes for good health, happiness, and modest prosperity to each and everyone of you world over.

May the Muses watch over your gear, dispel the demonic hum and noise, and impart everlasting presence in your audio signal just as well as your heart and soul.

Glad I got all that out of the way

Does anyone know where Electrocute caps (in small quantities) could be sourced?

Not a clue, but I have a high regard for them. They make a whole range, from very pedestrian, to very high performance. I've had quite a lot of success in calling manufacturers, explaining what I need and seeing if they'll recommend someone. Very often they'll be willing to supply a handful of parts as samples, or even break their rules and accept a small order. This has only worked for me if I call them directly. Email generally doesn't work. Obviously being as nice as possible has a big influence as well.

A friend of mine emailed to tell me that he has been successful in buying direct from them. So... it might be worth a call.

Otherwise, try this:

Will attempt contacting them directly. I actually contacted a distributor with a list of various values and quantities I considered sufficient to secure an order. The distributor not having stock came back quoting a minimum quantity of 100 for each value which would have had to be ordered from Electrocube. Would really like to get my ears on some of their polypropylene wrap or metalized series for signal and PS.

Thanks for the ideas
