 |
|
I am looking to do some DIY audio projects, but I am at a loss for where to find things like capacitors, pots, resistors, etc...
Digikey will ship here, but the shipping would be more expensive than the cost of parts.
Surely there must be some Korean equivalent to Mouser and DigiKey?
If not, I have no problem scouring Yongsan or wherever it may be.
Anybody have experience with this kind of thing?
Thanks |

Yongsan, Street side of nanjin arcade or the "flea market" on the west side alley of seon-in plaza. |

Great, thanks a lot.
Can you tell me a little more about where Seon-in plaza is? |

| Groovy. Upon reading the thread title, I thought you were interested in sourcing locals to build something on your behalf. If you got an idea, you can build a prototype to demonstrate it and produced it into sell-able units to possibly hit it big laughing all the way to the bank. What an awesome run to wealth, fame, and great fortune that would be. I would imagine every part to produce anything can be had, but knowing where to look and how to ask might be a rather highly scientific complicated matter in itself. |
