| Where is the best place to get Black Gate caps. Any of the big electronic houses have them? I've only found Michael Percy audio and one other one? |

Do a google for them. There is a guy in Hawai that sells them cheaper than anywhere I have found.

| I've tried the Pk's in an SI and thought that they sounded pretty good, but in my opinion, the HI-Q's and N series are better. The 4.7 uf N series is probably the best bet because they don't produce the extreme turn-on sound effects associated with the larger value (22uf) Hi-Q's. There is still an audible pop, but not as loud.You can try www.partsconnexion.com as another source for BG's |

Hi,
Could you tell me who the guy in Hawaii that sells the black gates is? Do you have a web address?
Thanks, Nick

Hi,
We're getting the ball rolling on a "Cardas Group Buy" Last year the response was good and we got some pretty good prices. That thread can be found at: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/show...&threadid=49013
Apparently, the manufacturer didn't want anyone posting the price online. So all prices were given directly to people in the group individually. Anyway, we started a wiki at http://www.diyaudio.com/wiki/index....s+Bulk+Purchase
Hopefully, we'll be able to generate enough interest that we can all save a lot of money. By the way, does anyone know how I can put a link in a post. I'm still pretty new to this site and don't know much about how to post.
Thanks, Nick

Battery Current + Black Gate caps + TA2024 + Silver wiring =
KILLER!
World Class midrange, once the caps complete the One Light Year burn in. |
