Tube Extenders Where to find?
Hello, I need to purchase the LISST tube substitutes for my Freya +
They require tube extenders...does anyone know where I may find them? Thanks
from Schiit Audio: they just need to be less than 1.3in or 33mm in diameter, and tall enough so that the base of LISST doesn't have to go through the hole in the Freya's top.

Asked and answered. FWIT they are also available from the larger stores that sell tubes , Tube Depot and The Tube Store ect. I have tubes but have never used them , wished I had on my little Had Inspire as the 4 sockets are pretty loose. I talked to Dennis about replacing them when he had my amp for a repair. He said that I might as well build a new amp. My contribution to your question is that while researching them I read a couple comments from people that installed them and had great difficulty when they needed to extract them. Again I have zero experience, maybe someone could chime in on that. Also I have 3 Schiit DAC’s and a Loki, they are a great value. Cheers , Mike B. |
