I need a small number of a variety of capacitors for various projects.
I hate to pay several dollars each (eBay prices) for items which sell for very little in quanity.
My immediate need is a couple of 16uf higher voltage capacitors for an old tube amp. But I am hoping to put together a larger order and single source them so that I can combine the shipping. |

Digikey/Mouser/Newark came to mind initially. Great search engines at all too. But, then I realize these folks don't tend to the high voltage/tube amp market.
www.tubesandmore.com is your best bet I think.
Perhaps Angela Instruments or some of the other sites catering specifically to tube amp builders/fixers. |

you can buy direct from Ruby, Tube Depot, Antique Elec. Supply, Mojotone...
all of these places have wholesale and dealer pricing too - but you can buy whatever you want at a fair price. Mojo is in North Carolina - might be the closest to you. You should try out the F+T caps, and don't be afraid to increase the values a little if you have to.

| I use Mouser Electronics for caps and resistors for the effects pedals I build. They are the cheapest I've found and you can order whatever quantity you desire and their selection is unbelievable. |

What Howard said. I've used them for many years
never been disappointed. First rate service and products all the way.
For many years I restored old tube radios and
amps. They have always had the high voltage caps
I needed. |
