In terms of respectable capacitor brands to buy, Nichicon, Rubycon, United (Nippon) Chemicon, and Panasonic (Matsushita) are all good, or Cornell Dubilier if you can afford them. Phillips used to make good capacitors and resistors but I don't know if you can still get them, likewise with Sanyo. Stay away from Lelon brand caps of any series or rating, even though Mouser sells them they are on the Badcaps.org bad cap list. It's doubtful that Mouser or Digital Key would have any counterfeits anymore, but they do turn up on fleabay.
