I use special hand stitched, exotic leather, custom made "Audiophile Hand Enclosures - Explicitly designed for handling vacuum tubes and touching high end audio gear." I got ’em from the emperor’s tailor.
Anyone wear gloves to handle vacuum tubes?
I wear cloth gloves to change or to test tubes. Does anyone else do this? I see lots of bare fingers handling tubes on ebay. If I ever do touch them with bare skin, I am very quick to wipe with dry cloth after. Just wondering what the rest of the world does. Thanks
