Can’t buy output tubes anywhere except from manufacturers at high prices.

it seem the supply more little so the chinese company take oportunity

I have bought probably 40 sets of output tubes, rolling on multiple amps in the past 2 years.  Very few were chinese new production.  No, they aren't as cheap as they used to be.  But they are available from tube sellers, message boards, ebay, etc.  And sometimes the input/driver are harder to find in top quality, probably the toughest one is NOS 6SN7s.  Oh yeah, some rectifiers are not easy to find in top quality...but they are available.

300B you have to look around, but you can find them.  Or pay top dollar for Westinghouse.

Sounds like a monster opportunity for the new Western Electric factory. Hope they can step up and put U.S.A. tubes back on the map.

Note to self:

Don't buy tube amps, someone else will enjoy more.

Hi,
A good friend of mine has a huge collection of tubes. He is now quite old and wants to sell off his tubes. He has advanced mesuring equipment as well so that he can check the tubes before shipping.

Please list the tubes that you need and I will forward your request to him.

Kind regards
Jaan
