What are we going to do about Tele 12AU7 prices

so the prices are ridiculous,,none of us can afford these prices..so what AU's are we going to substitue foe Teles.
And dont say RCA;'s, I  dont like   RCA's and  Philips Miniwatts were ok, nothing great. 
I need something close to Tele. but at 1/5th the price.

Mozartfan call Brent Jesse and ask about Mazda tubes. Made for the French Military. The 12AU7 silver plate is similar to Tekefunkens extended top end. The 6189 is similar but a little on the warmer side.

Just a guess but I think you would like the Silver plate if you favor the Telefunken sound.
