Hi Guys

Im curious wonder if anyone can affirm this.
First time I ordered from Mouser but the wrapping
of the Silmich ll is totally different from the norm
that I've used. It's dull brown with white lettering
& stripes just like Elna's generic caps.
Makes me wonder if they're genuine😖

Thanks
 
Silmic ll from Mouser ?????

Hi Guys
Curious about this, its my first purchase from Mouser.
The cap wrapping is different from any other Silmic that
I've used before. It's just dull brown with white printing.
Are they a different grade or ?????? I hate to think
otherwise

Thks Guys
 
If you want a SilmicII that travels from Elna to distributor to you, dull brown and white is only SilmicII that exists.
Maybe if you courageous you can buy a SilmicII that is made for Denon/Sony and when Denon/Sony stopped using them and had surplus sold to surplus dealer, that sold to others that sold to you, several questionmarks in between, today at any link fake chinese products enter chain.
 
Hi Irribeo
My Silmic ll previous purchases are from 2 reputable component stores
which I have bought stuff from over the years. It does makes me wonder
if they're imported from Japan packaging might be different cause the market
there is very particular about presentation & yes Im well aware that Silmic ll
are actually produced in Elna's Thailand factory.
Anyway many thanks will know when I mount the caps

Cheers
