Dillen in this forum is my number one supplier of capacitors. I've just been in contact with him regarding these caps, and he says that he is out of stock at the moment, but he has ordered more, and they should be available in a couple of weeks. Send him a PM.

I just want to thank you, Martin, for making this guide. Followed it short of changing the 1.5uF (didn't have any available). My Beocenter 9500 now plays CD-Rs perfectly. If you just made a repair guide for the Avant mk1....
