I've bought 100s of the WM8731SEDS from various suppliers over the past 4 years there and only had a few duds.

Subject: [sdiy] Searching WM8731 in SSOP-28
Dear List,
this is my first post and I'd quickly like to introduce myself: My name is Max and I run E-RM here in Berlin, Germany. We are a 5 person boutique manufacturer for music electronics. I have been reading here for almost 6 years now, but I have to leave silence at this point with a request for help:
We kind of got all right through the global part shortage, but now it recently struck us for our polygogo module - we can't source WM8731SEDS anywhere for our next production runs before next year. I know that this part is used in a few other modules, for example Mutable Instruments, so I'd like to the chance and ask:
Is here anyone on this list who has some stock and would be willing to sell any? Or has any advice for trustworthy brokers? Or... any other tips?
Any help would be really much appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Max
