Audiophile caps & resistors shop in Europe

[Eldam]

Hi,

Don't know if it's the good place for that :

I'm looking for a shop in Europe with a good choice list for caps & resistors not provided by giant like Mouser/Digikey or little american/japanase stores as Partconnexions e.g. ?

Taxes are very expensive: 30 euros minimum fixed import custom taxes e.g. with Fedex even if you buy 10 USD parts & a small post package😱... I had the surprise after bought two dac chips at Rochester Electronics... who send me the two dip16 chips in a 400 g package...so 65 dollars of shippment (for 10g chips & 58 USD chips price) + 30 euros of taxes... also because the weight of freight !)

So if someone know a good store apart Hifi collective britanic store or the too simple choice of Audiophonics french store, it can hep me a lot !

I'm especially looking for discontinued non fake Sanyo OSCON SP series or Mills or Bradley resistors !

Thank you

If I want special, "esoteric" parts (Pcx, Hificollective, ebay), I understand, that they are expensive.

Thank you,

I know already those generalist shops I use already but i'm looking for equivalent to Hificollective GB for parts which are not sourcable bu those giants! Are this shop alone in Europe in relation to the choice of thre audiophile components ? (résistors and caps especially?)

I use Banzai Music GmbH. They have a good range of high end components and are reasonably priced.

Thank you Marcus... exactly what I looking for with Banzai : choice of caps is gooder than what we have in France....and some discontinued Sanyo caps 🙂

I think there are taxes from GB with hificollective... not euros ?!

I try to avoid the 30 euros fixes taxes than shipment company like Fedex charge when you import from outside of euros zone... That's why I asked for an alternative choice about Hificollective.🙂

Within EU no extra tax, only the local VAT (20% in GB).

Thanks Euro21 for this information, you 're right I was confused because they have no euro monney. So HifiCollective is a good alternative also.

Super I have Sanyo organics caps at Banzai and Allen Bradley or good carbon at Hificollective.

Thank you fellows

Regards,

Another question please,

In France Farnell charge 18 euros for shipment even with more than 60 euros (in relation to Mouser/digikey).

Does someone know a less expensive place for Rhopoint Econistor wirewound resistor sourcing and/or Rubycon caps in Europe please? Someone always respond to me that Rhopoint can shipps it but at a more expensive shipment price than Farnell...

thanks in advance
