buzzforb - see PM, I just needed to match up your paypal to your username here. Think I have it right....

Ok, so I'm going to close this GB tomorrow night.
I have had no response from Vitalica or aud1out so far. If I hear nothing by tomorrow night, I will probably reduce slightly the number of kits and inductors to buy. Vitalica was on here a few days ago, aud1out hasn't posted in a month.
Guys, if you're reading this, get in contact.

Guys,
we are in a spot of bother here. I went to place my order with Mouser tonight and they are low on stock of the inductors - with none on order.
Are they available anywhere else?
Fastron website only shows Mouser as a distributor with 99 in stock, it lists cpc-farnell in the UK as a seller but they only have upto 12mH inductors.
Help!

Nothing in most of the back doors i know. Bourns has something very similar with lower DC resistance. You are going to have to plug EUVL or Joachim for the important parameters.
PMs sent to EUVL and Joachim Gerhard. Email sent to Fastron head office, plus I'll follow that up with a phone call to them tomorrow.

Alternates at Mouser:
Bourns 18mH
Xicon 18mH
The Bourns one is shielded, most specs the same, but self resonant frequency is different.

This is unfortunate. On the other hand i can not imagine that this part is not made any more. I can only hope that Fastron has an answer. In the unlikely event that it needs too long to source this part we have to look for an alternative. It works very well though so we thought we have the optimum solution.
I checked the Bourns and the Xicon. DC impedance did not make a big difference in my simulations but they have a lower self resonance of 200kHz against 500kHz of the Fastron.
If that makes an audible difference i can not tell. That has to be tested.

To avoid long discussions or other people jumping in, XEN audio just ordered all remaining stock from Mouser.
We are looking around to see if we can find another 100x or so.
If we can, we shall ship them to you at original cost, and Fran just make one transfer to us on your behalf.
If not, we need to find a replacement part and Joachim has to approve.
In any case, we shall :
a) find a solution,
b) everyone gets the same.
🙂
Give us a few days,

Many thanks guys,
I will ring fastron this morning - but a search from their website last night didn't yield anything.

Joachim is calling Fastron Germany head office.
Please give us a chance to deal with this.
We will offer you a solution one way or another.
