where to order caps?

[peace brainerd]

Where is everyone ordering caps from?

I want to "recap" a thirty year old receiver.

I emailed Mouser and recieved this reply...

Hello,

The Nichicon Muse parts that you are referring to is the KZ series,
which is a premium grade cap for audio equipment. We do not stock an
equivalent. We do not have any caps that are designed specifically for
audio equipment. I do not have anything I would recommend for this
application.

Nichicon website http://www.nichicon.com/.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. We look forward
to helping you with your future orders.

Thank You,

Then I emailed Partsconnexion and was told...

Sorry we do not carry this line at this time. We will be bringing them in
sometime this summer. Our PDF catalog is not available at this time we have
not had the time to do so as our company has gotten so busy with filling
orders.
Sincerely,

.... which is essentially a brush-off since I don't want to buy BlackGates.

Where to go?
