In search for 805 tubes other than Chinese made

Anyone knows where to get a nice pair of 805 tubes (less than say $800)? It seems that Shuguang/PSvanes 805 tubes are the only brand I can find. I'm not against them but wonder if other options are available. I only could find a single RCA 805 tube but I need a matched pair.

Unfortunately they are the largest manufacturer of most tubes and TJ Full Music 805 are suppose to sound even better/more dynamic than the tubes you mentioned.

Thank you. I was looking at them too wonder if they are better or not. I'll search for the review.

Now I remember why I didn't look further for TJ, my SET amp requires the 805 with electrode on top of the tube. TJ doesn't make them.
