Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000
I have a BHK Pre and I do not call it warm. Now, I've only used the PSVane factory Tubes and Gold Lions (12au7). The PSV tubes are slightly warmer sounding. The BHK is neutral but "silky" with the tubes I've tried.   
Interesting comment on Bose Speakers.....
I had a 1999 Corvette that had Bose power speakers. The head unit was a standard GM/Delco with CD. For that small of a space, the system sounded great and would crank up quite a bit. However, it sounded nothing compared to the Harmon kardon system...

Here's the pic. Actually that would be good advertising for releases by just changing out the label  
Russian tube supply issues
@richopp I'm also concerned about getting Russian Vodka for my well-stocked, billion-dollar bar.  There is counseling for virtual signalers...go see your doctor for a referral

@prof Virtue Signaling is an addiction disease that is hard to cure. In the current "look at me" society, it makes people feel important to the groups of people they admire. The bigger question is if one is "really as concerned as they want ever...

I think any Mac tube (or solid-state for that matter) runs on the warm side of neutral.

Back to tubes. I think tube supplies will be fine. If China can build a skyscraper in 20 days, they can add tube production capacity. Much of this is overblown much like the "lacquer" fire "scare" a couple of years back. I can't blame some outlets... 
I'm Done with the Fozgometer and the Foz XTR
It's easy to go down the OCD rabbit hole in audio. Cartridge set up, speaker placement/angle, etc. I get the closets I can get using "normal" methods and measurements and I'm good to go. Heck, who knows how accurate or what kind of cutting head pl... 
Any tubes currently manufactured in the US, Japan or Germany?
I’m willing to bet China will be able to add extra capacity fairly quickly if the demand warrants such.

@ghdprentice 20 years is really good IMO, loud or not. I've seen the Nessie's in the Music Direct Catalog

@artemus_5 I'm curious about the HumminGuru, however, it has not been around long enough to have any real longevity data. I really do not want to mess with all the Ultrasonic contraptions on Amazon, ebay. I wish Degritter was about $1000 cheaper.
