Best Source for Tubes

Audiogon always has a good supply of used tubes.They are usually much cheeper than a dealer and many memebers have rolled tubes and have tubes up for sale. Just plug in tubes in search on this site and see what you come up with.If you choose to go the dealer route expect to pair high prices due to their expertise. Depends on the depth of your pocket i guess........

I agree with Thorman. Audiogon is a good source for tubes, just stay with the sellers that have a lot of nice feedback. You could probably find them cheaper elsewhere, but that's a good way to get a stack of old, microphonic, or just pain bad sounding tubes. Andy at Vintage Tube service does a nice job because he tests the tubes before he sends them out.

give us all a tip on what your looking ( tube type -sound of tube your looking for etc. ) for and maybe we can up with something............

whle Jim specializes in restoring old Citation amps, his tube pages are a good listing of a variety of NOS, used and new production tubes.

I've bought literally dozens of tubes from Jim without a single problem. He tests every tube, and guarantees performance. Plus he's a nice guy too! Hard to beat.

I have no other affiliation, just a happy customer.
