Are you considering the Elna Silmics he says come out on top (even over the Black Gate) for him? I have read that Nelson Pass seems to think highly of the sound of the Silmic.
There's a guy on AudioKarma who does listening tests to various electrolytics in a piece of SS Marantz gear. He liked Elna Silmics best too. A search of AK should turn that up for you, if you're interested.
I've used Black Gate in the past, along with the Panasonic FM, or FC when the correct FM value wasn't available. Based on the recommendation of Nelson Pass, and the AK comparison article, I've bought Silmics to try in my next few projects.
Good luck with your search.
