[ New sensor address deleted ]

They even have ceramic tube sockets for $1.50, as opposed to the $12
advertised
by several audiophile concerns. Even have gold-plated ceramic sockets of
various sizes
that are reasonably priced for new sockets. Most likely made in China, but
still....

Their tube prices ( non-audiophile) are not "that" bad but I am cheap and
buy a lot of
my tubes used from Fair Radio..... :-)
