VAC is your number one source for quality audio parts: resistors, capacitors, transformers, closeout tubes, Marantz Classic parts, and more! We sell these parts for many reasons, including discontinuation of the VAC (or OEM by VAC) product that used them, or discontinuation by the manufacturer, which makes the part impractical for use in continuous commercial production.
