John Hillig is a fan of Black Gate caps.  Musical Design dot com.

Which BG eh?  FK, NX, VK, WKZ, N :nono:
$19 each.  Good luck.

Parts Connexion has as 150uf 350v NH. I prefer the non-polars for everything except the STD work for PSU stuff.

This place has pretty much all of them ever, http://www.thlaudio.com/ .

Go with N if the capacitor carries any information. Also if you go with N and it carries information put the short lead to positive. They are "non-polar" but sound better in reverse.

DOS,good find! It looks like they stock the 100/100 500v duplex that topround is looking for perhaps for a Mapletree PS2 preamp power supply. Maybe I'll order one too!

Just remember when he sends you prices you have to convert them to US or they would be astronomical.

Here is another option.  Mundorf 100/100

I would rather not use electrolytics of any kind if possible, but you may be space constrained with the mapletree given its diminutive size.
