Linlai E 6sn7 tubes

I know Don buys his tubes in bulk from an authorised dealer in China.

Re: Viva Tubes, all I'm saying is that they've become a dealer recently. Maybe contact Linlai and ask if there are legit dealers in the US. The only one I know of is Grant Fidelity, Canada I think. 

@bugredmachine  NO hiss what so ever. I have LaScala's 2 which is 105 db

I finally saw the link above and ordered 4 extenders. Maybe the tubes are tight and not inserting all the way. We'll try that workaround when they arrive.

I bought the 6sn7 tube did not fit well on my preamp, I only get one channel works. But on my other preamp no problem, I bought socket saver to see if will do the trick.

@danmar123 the fellow that makes adapters is in this thread

Scroll down until you see the picture of a similar shaped adapter. Posters name is Devan. It obviously would have only 1 tube socket. He was just presenting this to see if it was kind of what I had in mind. I’ve never met or talked to the man, though others in the thread recommended him highly.

Thanks,
