Coincident Linestage vs CJ CT5 or Allnic L-3000

If interested, I have three pair included in the last order. With the Chinese New Year, they will be delayed somewhat but they will be here soon. After shipping and import duties, price will be $550 a pair for the guys here. $650+ will be regular price.

Sounds like there will be several options for everyone on where to buy these in the next few months.

Jordan and Brownsfan,
If we an work something out among us I say full speed ahead ( hey I'm a former navy guy).
Charles,

Anchors Aweigh, Charles:)
If I were in the market, I myself would consider an additional back-up pair if it were a deciding factor to make the 20 pair group buy. Tho, I do realize the expenditure, we have seen full introductory manufacture's prices escalate shortly after introduction and these are a lesser used tube variety. Did not the Tak's 300B pricing rise?

Brett,
They sure did! I was fortunate to get my Takatsuki tubes early and directly from Japan.

I can't wait for you guys to try them out. I have an Aussie friend In Guangzhou who will be getting 2 more pairs for CSLS owners in Perth, Western Australia ( the CSLS is catching on over here). Apparently the next batch of tubes will be completed by the end of February.

It sounds like Israel might offer the WE replicas as an option on the CSLS. Cool.
BTW, don't forget that these tubes definitely need running in. It was around the 70 hour mark that the magic started to appear and they improved further after that.
