Can't remember if i posted this before. But Check this place.
I've bought from them a few times. You can get the more overseas type values 22,33,47uf etc. or the more normal USA values, 20,30,40,50uf etc..
Thats what i call them anyway. These are physical smaller size caps.
But 105 deg rated. They have lots of different type, values,single can caps for stuff for other amps. Dual can, and many other types.
They have for higher voltage caps, 450,500v,600v. And still have lower rated voltage caps too.
Very good fair prices. They are in canada. I'm not affiliated with them,just passing this on for someone looking for good caps.
I did like the USA made Tech caps, I got from JEA caps on ebay, but the price just went out of hand on those. The lower rated caps or caps of the values used in amps were more than the 80uf or 100uf caps which should have cost more. And the quanity prices were never the same. They have lots of caps listed,so you just have to look,and find a bargin. Just search JEA capacitors, his ebay store shold pop up.
As for certian sprague ele. caps and newer mica caps, i try to shy away from those.

He said that at least 20 years ago. Things have changed - at this point everything is crap :lol:
