Stuart,
Regarding the Riedon resisitors, I e-mailed you, via hotmail, a week or two ago. Please tell me the quantity of each that you need. The Riedon website had a default 1000 piece order(!). Let me know, and I'll continue the process of getting the quote. If there are few enough, you might qualify for a sample order.
Digikey is an authorized distributor for Riedon resistors in my (New York State) area.

EDIT: Stuart, I just put in an RFQ with Digikey for 25-50 each of the Reidon resistors you denoted.

In the process of replacing ALL the components in the original Lehman Black Cube phono stage, I seriously began to research resistors. Couple this with lots of emails between myself and Beau of Moskido fame (he raves about Vishay S102s) and a whole new ballpark opens up. I'm going to use 'naked Vishays' for the signal path but I'm not sure about what to use for those resistors not in the signal path. I would have liked to use Reidon/Powertron thin film Rs in these positions but there is a conflict of interest as explained to me by the European sales manager for Powertron (Germany). I cannot send emails to Reidon in California, they just get bounced back. This maybe my computer or it maybe like the Eichman bullit plug) site that automatically refers you to some company that sells their products in your geographical zone. Can anyone help me out with getting prices for the Reidon series of - USR 2-0808 & USR 2-1510. I'll bet that the USA prices are much cheaper than European ones (how much can we rip them off for). Already after some mods on the phono stage I can clearly hear noise and I'll bet that's from the cheap metal film 1/8th W resistors. So, if anyone in the States can send an email to get pricers on the series quoted, I would be grateful. |
