Hi I need help chousing what type of capacitor to buy. Since I 'am gona buy this once and spend I reasonable amount of money I thought better to ask some of you experienced what to use.
I need them for AlephX ( +/-18V ),Aleph30 ( +/-24V ) and mini Aleph ( +/-18V ).

So this is what I can get and the price for them:
( from farnell (http://uk.farnell.com ) and rscomponents ( rswww.com ) )

This two I can get in Croatia :

RIFA PEH 200 22000/25V PEH200HC5220MB2
http://rswww.com/cgi-bin/bv/rswww/s...ldjecefeceefdffhdgli.0&cacheID=ukie&Nr=avl:uk

ESR 17mOhm I=15.2A ( 85* )

Price for 25 peaces of them would be 490Euro

or

Vishay BC components 22000/40V ( 051/053 PHR – ST )
http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=1166600&N=401

ESR 39mOhm I=5.8A ( 85* )

Which I can get for 12.5 Euro/peace = 22 peaces = 275 Euro


Or, I can order from U.K.


Epcos 47000/40V ( B 41 456 / B 41 458 )
http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=3878090&N=401
ESR 12mOhm I=13A ( 85* )
Would need 16 of them and the price would come out around 30 Euro / peace
Total 480Euro

Vishay BC components 47000/40V ( 101/102 PHR – ST )
http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=8820740&N=401
ESR 12mOhm I=14.6A ( 85* )
Would need 16 of them and the price would come out around 30 Euro / peace
Total 480Euro

Or I could use 22000/40V and would nead 20-22 of them and the price would be the sime as for 16 of 47000uF...

Epcos 22000/40V ( B 41 456 / B 41 458 )
http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=4704680&N=401
ESR 20mOhm I=9.6A ( 85* )

Vishay BC components 22000/40V ( 101/102 PHR – ST )
http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=8820740&N=401
ESR 20mOhm I=9.4A ( 85* )


So any advice what would you chouse in my place ?
Would you go for Epcos, BC, or Rifa ?
Rifa is near power voltage 24V / 25V - but I believe it can take it, I like the idea of Rife since I would not have to bother with custom, or anything...just order...and wait ( or I could order from U.K. and pay something less )
but if Epcos or BC is better capacitor at the sime price ?

Thanks

I have look couple days ago, but didn't find anything...will try again.

The shiping and custom pump up the price :-(

Rifa on rswww are around 11Euro ( 13 with VAT ) but if I order from their representative in Croatia the sime capacitor cost me 25Euro ( with VAT )...:-(

Steen, unskilled guessing could make a victim. . . :devilr:

The above comparison of caps show different ESRs,
all of which are however low enuf to avoid posible low-frequency ocsillation.
As I am a diyer, I would buy cheap ones.
However, if I am a commercial,
I would use expensive one for a value added profit margin.
I will do so. :D

On a second thought the PHE169 15.000uF's are pretty nice at that price:) 30 pcs left!
Steen:cool:

On a third thought there is even more nice components available:)

Unfortinaly expensive

I don't see those 15.000uF only 10.000/63V PHE 169 at price of 125kr = 13.6 Euro ( if I'am not wrong ).

But if I order 30 of them ( and I nead 30 or more ) to Croatia it will come out :

30x13.6=408Euro + shiping of around 30 Euro + custom of cca30%, so in total it would be 570Euro :-(

will have to look some more, or I will buy those RIFA PEH 200 22000/25V PEH200HC5220MB2
ESR 17mOhm I=15.2A ( 85* )

I bought about month ago 20 pcs of 10.000/35 for 25E from Hungary.
pretty generic snap in,but who cares for that price... ;)
I'll just double them soon....

Thanks Zen Mod but those RIFA PEH 200 22000/25V PEH200HC5220MB2 comes 7.36 GBP or 11 Euro ( from rswww )... so I belive for now they are the best choice.

The only problem is that on every price I have to add 30% custom + shiping costs of around 30-40Euro, which rise price...if order from outside Croatia...

I would like to use nice parts, put everything together and not wore could I do something better, like better PSU capacitors...

Thanks for the offer :)

yes-sum 20 pcs for just 25 E;

I bet that you'll not hear difference
I did not hear using them instead of ROE caps- tested in my oooold DIY A1
hehe
and your pocket will feel difference
