6,3 volts would be an NX type of blackgate. These are the best you can get of any cap available. These are the red caps. They have the lowest noise floor of any cap available. Recommended.

But if you want black gates, look on the www, plenty of diy stores sell black gates.


Here's a link to a store selling black gates:

http://www.hificollective.co.uk/comp...te_n_type.html

http://www.partsconnexion.com/catalo...ctrolytic.html

the closest is 1500uf 10volts nx type for 11 dollars.

Head-fi is never a good place to look for your wallet.LOL.
