They have a good selection of mylar and polypropylene caps as well as inductors, resistors, drivers, speaker kits, etc. They are VERY reasonable (e.g. Audax TW51 tweeter for $6.00!) and will ship promptly if you call and make a credit card order. Now that I have you all hyped-up, I must confess that I don't have the address with me. I do have their phone number, though: MADISOUND: (608) 767-2773 Call them and ask for a free catalog! If you need their address it can be obtained from the back of "Audio Magazine" or "Stereo Review". Hope this helps. -- __________________________________________________________________________ Tom Levin {ttidca|sdcrdcf|logico|scgvaxd|bellcore}!psivax!tommie "Turn it up!!!"

It was in reference to the name of the company "Madisound" and the fact that it was located in MADISOn Wisconsin. It was *NOT* a put down on that city. Sorry for the confusion. -- __________________________________________________________________________ Tom Levin {ttidca|sdcrdcf|logico|scgvaxd|bellcore}!psivax!tommie "Turn it up!!!"
