Canadian Parts Suppliers
« on: September 24, 2016, 08:34:05 am »
I lost 8 years of amp building data and sources last year due to an unfortunate accident. I lost all of my parts supplier info. I am attempting to rebuild that data base and need you guys help. I had a supplier in Canada, I don't remember what city, that had great prices on components Does anyone have any Canadian parts suppliers that they would share a link with me? Please help me find these guys. Thanks

I've purchased parts from this site before:

http://www.justradios.com/

They only stock capacitors and resistors but they have a big selection and carry caps in ratings and packages (axial, radial) that I couldn't find elsewhere.

Some of the most amazing music in history was made with equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

a1parts.ca has the best prices on Hammond transformers, also has sockets, caps, resistors, terminal strips and such though you can never really be sure what you're ordering as it's mostly a surplus store

AES (tubesandmore.com) currently has a 15% off promo for international customers with discounted rates on DHL 1-day delivery.

And Mouser is great because you can show in CAD$, and as long as you use standard shipping (which I believe is free for orders over 100$) you won't get any surprise duty fees.
