I need two of these Nichicon KX series 220uF 450V caps. Mouser is the only "electronics" company I know of that normally keeps them in stock ,but they are out. Originally, they said they would be back in stock on the 29th of this month. They have since pushed it back to April 14th. Because of the devistation in Japan, it may be longer.

My question is, does anyone know where I can get two of these capacitors for my DAC? thanks for your help. http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=LKX2W221MESA45virtualkey64700000virtualkey647-LKX2W221MESA45

My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    you could also try some of the hifi boutique suppliers; e.g., www.partsconnexion.com. I have been very happy with them (but this is an "n=1" datapoint).

    The little guys might not run through stock as quickly as the behemoths (Digikey and Mouser).

    It's a "no go" on Digikey and Newark. They don't normally stock them. Partsconnxion does not have the KX line of caps, unfortunately. I have also tried Handmade electronics. No KX series. I don't see any listed on the Sonic Craft web site. I don't know if they carry Nichicon? They used to sell Black Gate, but they are gone. Does anyone know if they sell Nichicon as I know they stock things not listed on their web site. Thanks again.
