" 1. Personal Phone Conversation
Given the complexity and nature of this business, the very best method of contacting me is still via the phone. As I consult with you on the phone, I ask questions about your specific system and give you advice that may not otherwise be apparent or discussed via email. Additionally, my experience is that I get to the bottom of specifically assisting your needs more efficiently and effectively having a personal discussion. My ultimate priorities are the phone calls from my clients and fulfilling their orders. Please feel free to call me. I’d be happy to share my knowledge, experience, and expertise with you. My number is 616.454.3467 "

@grey9hound +2  - Kevin is not a nice guy to deal with.  I use Christian Whitmore "Bowie" of Pro Audio Tubes. Nice guy - very knowledgeable.  Email him at [email protected].

Tube Audio Store (RAM tubes) and Brent Jessee.  Not a fan of Upscale Audio for reasons previously mentioned.  Vintage Tube Services has excellent quality tubes, but you must be willing to wait several weeks to get your tubes.
