Black Gate Standard
The Upgrade Company has plenty of Black Gate capacitors in stock, although they have been long discontinued.
They are still "State of the Art" & "The World's Best" electrolytic capacitors in many circuit applications.

"To Upgrade -or- not to Upgrade, there is no Question"


"Own the very best!"


Stock high-end audio gear still leaves a lot to be desired.
Even ultra high end models simply fail to come close sonically to the same model which has been upgraded.

Ayre CX-5xe Evolution CD player upgrade 

"I first heard The Upgrade Company's handy work when a friend loaned me his upgraded Magnum Dynalab MD-108 tuner. Having owned one for many years prior to selling to fund a HiFi upgrade, I was very surprised by how much better this was.  I jumped at the opportunity to buy this when my friend decided to sell it, and this continues to be my pride and joy. More recently I heard an Upgrade Co upgraded Blu-ray player.  Impressed, I decided to send my Ayre CX-5xe to them. This is a unit I know very well having thoroughly enjoyed it for two years.

When I got the unit back the new sound was excellent straight out of the box.  The sound is more dynamic. Bass is much tighter and deeper.  There is much more detail and layering in the soundstage. It adds resolution that is very fluid.  I can recommend this upgrade to all Ayre CX-5xe owners out there"
