Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine?
Having a set of tube amps being shipped to me this week. Its a pair of Audio Mirror Reflections monoblocks that use the 6C33C tubes. The amps come with one set of outputs and a pair of spares. I was thinking of ordering a backup set of tubes. After looking at the tube sites, the majority of them are Russian sellers, and that is not going to work due to current events. However, there are sellers from the Ukraine of this tube. Do you think a person can order from them and have a good chance of receiving their package?
@twoleftears , Curiouser and curiouser, as Alice would say. Seems like someone has an inside line that circumvents Tammy. I always wondered why some were so quickly taken down while the patently offensive ones would stay up for days. All the best, |
Jesus. I don't care about what your opinion is of whatever state, or the country in general. All I did was ask a question about ordering a set of tubes for an amp. I don't CARE what you think about wherever you do, do not, or used to live. Give it a rest. I did get a response back from a Ukraine seller that he is able to mail tubes. It's on Ebay so I have buyer protections. I will give the seller a chance, and a decent amount of time for the postal system to deliver. As an update, the amp arrived but must have taken a shock during shipping. I have an output tube socket that is showing a fault. So its going back to Vladamir for repair, and he is doing that gratis. But there are updated resistors and wiring available for this amp, so I am sending the second one along too so both amps can get the latest updates and a clean bill of health. These are not going to be my primary amps, so the wait is no big deal. Have to say these 6c33c tubes are beastly. The amp came with blue glass Sophia 6SN7 and Sophia 6SL7, both are lovely looking tubes. Always liked the Sophia products as I used to own their 300B Meshplates. But give it a rest, I don't care what you think about the US and where you live. |
