Tube sources?
#1

Who do you guys use for tube sources?  A few come up in a google search but a rec would be nice.

Thanks

Bill

Hi Bill - I use findatube.com as my primary source. Bob is very reasonable and has used and NOS tubes. I buy extras to fill a Priority box.

On this site...Philco Phorum

Top of page - Click on -
Philco Library

go to -

TUBES
Clicking on the tube suppliers will provide a link to their info.

I also like findatube.com

Certainly Bob Dobush.

Then there are others. Say, Jim McShane. Great guy, top notch source for audio tubes.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

+5 on Bob Dobush. I bought one of his old tube testers last January at the MARC Winter event. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
