PC mount tube socket and 4u7 cap source for Gyraf Pultec

Has anyone found a good mail order source in the states for the following:

9-pin PC mount tube socket
4u7/250V cap (in audio chain)

Mouser has a Xicon cap that fits the bill, but they are backordered until June, and Soundguy says that Xicon caps in the audio chain suck!

I've managed to find nearly everything else through Mouser or Digikey, and have a nice, updated parts spreadsheet if others are sourcing this stuff.

MTIA,

Nick

well, I dont like them but I know others do. Its all very subjective based upon the results you are trying to get, I wouldnt just blindly follow my advice, plug one in there, you might love it, these judgements depend on so many things and a part like that, especially a xicon, should be cheap enough to try and not be upset tossing if you dont like it.

I answered my own question. Parts Express has the following:

Solen 4.7uF 400VDC polypropylene caps part # 027-552 $2.59 ea

9-pin PC mount ceramic tube sockets part # 055-502 $1.95 ea

Hope this helps somebody else looking for the same stuff.
