Hello,
I don't think I've seen any Nichichon caps in an ARC product...but maybe some of the late model pieces with radial caps might have them.
Sprague is now part of the Vishay group..not sure if the atoms are still made in the USA. Although atoms are very high quality for the axial type and they're drop in replacement which make sense for resale value.

I pretty sure the Nichicons are used. Here is a REF3 that has both radial and axial. The cap in the first pic next the PS tube is axial and it looks like a Nichicon.
Wonder why they don't use the Sprague/Vishay...
