Can anyone recommend a brand of RAM for my 2019 iMac?

I have a 2019 iMac (5K, 27", i9 upgrade) and would like to upgrade the memory? Can anyone recommend a brand (i.e., Crucial, Kingston, OWA) and/or vendor (other than Amazon) they have had success with in or around Toronto or the GTA? I am hoping to buy a pair of 32GB RAM chips but have heard iMacs might be a bit particular about what is inserted. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Please only purchase RAM from either Crucial.com or Macsales.com. iMacs are very sensitive to RAM and need a high quality RAM. Both vendors have a long history of only supplying high quality products, have fair pricing, provide excellent service and offer life-time warranties on RAM. In short there really isn't any reason to not use one of them.
