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

eapavant said:. Have you looked on ebay? Thats a lot of money for caps.
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 )...:-(
If you are building the last word in psu's you want RIFA's, no doubt🙂 I had loads of RIFA's from this guy at cheap prices:
http://www.svalander.se/shoppen/lytar.htm
The Rifa's are exceptionally good electrolytics.
Steen😎
BTW I am sorry to see that there is only a few left

On a second thought the PHE169 15.000uF's are pretty nice at that price🙂 30 pcs left!
Steen😎
On a third thought there is even more nice components available🙂

I found english version, but information is not the sime as on svenska ... will send him a e.mail
Do a conversion on http://www.xe.com/ucc/ from Swedish kroner to Euro's.
The Rifa's at Svalanders are so cheap that you wouldnt believe it! Compare the price to Rifa's listed price
😉

Many famous brands stunningly cheap in some area. . .
Quality marginally different, tho. . .

In this particular case: I dont think so.Quality marginally different, tho. . .

Babowana??? With JHY signature?? YOU have me guessing😀
Steen, unskilled guessing could make a victim. . . 
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. 😀

Hey, dont worry, my ears usually doesnt let me down 🙂Aya, I meant guesswork of non-tech thing. . .

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....
if you're interested ,I can scavenge direct link ....
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...

Or I miss understand;
you have pay 25E for 20 pices 🙂
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
I have no idea at all. If different PSU caps, different only in brand
name, give different sound, what is the tech background of it?
