getting parts in Johannesburg, South Africa

[mylesgm]

Hi all,  I'm currently in Swaziland building a variety of small projects for art installations.  I'm looking for a good parts and kit supplier in Joburg specifically looking for transducers/exciters like dayton manufacture for use in 'invisible' speakers and small format low watt kit audio amplifiers.  I can't seem to find much info online for where I might get such things...  Any ideas?  In australia I'd just buy them from jaycar, altronics or ebay but I can't find their equivalent here.
Thanks for any help...

I'm sure Mouser or Digikey will ship to you.  No idea what freight will cost but at least you could get your parts.

There are 3main places for this kind of thing.

Communica www.communica.co.za
Mantech      www.mantech.co.za
AP Electronics      http://www.apelectronics.co.za/

All of these firms have major agencies, but cater for hobbyist types as well.

Not sure where you will find Dayton stuff but you can ask here:

Its an audio forum with a healthy attitude, similar to The Lab.

Let me know if I can help further
