Audiokit do them but they charge 4,88 euros each http://www.audiokit.it/ENG/Frames/Introduction1.htm don't even look at getting these in the UK Max, they'll rip you for about £12 per cap (or more)

All the best.

Beautiful, congratulations maxdamage on a work of art.

I have switched back to using the 843's on the browndog. They have a much better stereo image when using the amp as an active preamp and seem cleaner. Initial impression was they had less bass but on reflection I think the bass is just tighter. I think they lack a little slam compared to the 823 but it is hard to tell. I would be interested in anyones comments regarding the 843's.
