I had to take a picture of the transformer wall when I was there:

Should give you an idea of what you're getting yourself into...
 
Wil....
Apex is where I started working as a kid, hence my business name
Apex Jr... I have lots of high voltage tube amp caps in stock
from 10Uf thru 100Uf both axial and radial and snap in type
450V too...
Some tubes in stock too...
I available Monday thru Friday and ny warehouse is by appointment
only and is located by the 2 and 210 freeways...
Lot smaller than the big Apex but I'm geared toward the Audio
tube amp trade. You can also check my prices on caps on my
website www.apexjr.com

Thanks Steve I may be calling you. I was able to put my hads on 7 50/50uf lcr's with 98 datecodes. I will see what all amps are dropped in my lap. I bookmarked your site.


thanks Wil

p.s. was I the only one druling at the wall of tranies?
 
Apex is like mecca. The first time I went there I started hyperventilating.
Four hours later, I had finally settled down.
Since then, I've been able to see first timers walking around. They have the same Glassy eyed look I must have had.

I hear that apex JR is also really good.

Steve, are you "the son" they keep referring to?
 
Yep...

I worked for my father there for 30 years, and in 1992 left to
do my own thing...
At that time my brother was doing his thing in Video and when
I left in 1992 he came back...
My Father passed away in 2002 and now my mother, sister and brother
are there....
It was a cool place to work, but I enjoy what I'm doing now.
A quick line from one of the employee's (stock guy)
"It was like cleaning your garage everyday"
