It ain’t going anywhere

Jim McShane wrote me before the Russia-Ukraine war started that he could not and would not sell KT150's because he had to buy hundred to find five or ten decent tubes. If you look at his website now, he cites to advancing age and refusing to support Russia for his decision to stop selling tubes (which does not make total sense since the New Sensor factory is American owned). But all that said, yes, you can find good ones from Upscale. Everything after Kevin Deal is tough. TC Tubes used to be a reliable source of tubes for me and they no longer sell KT150's. 

Never cared never liked them never owned

Sounds like they've been under pressure for quite awhile having over 1100 creditors - makes you wonder how much debt they've incurred...

I do find it surprising that ARC, facing such financial trouble, would be shelling out $50,000 or more to attend Axpona. I realize they shared expenses with Wadax but after you pay for shipping gear, hotel rooms, entertainment expense, I bet it was 50K easy. Gear does not get sold at Axpona, particularly when you are not showing new product.
