Tube Dealer Recommendation


Hi There,

I am hoping to re-tube my Cary SLI-80 amplifier with NOS tubes. Specifically looking to change out the 6922 and 6SN&. There seems to be quite a few tube dealers out there. Anyone have recommendations for well regarded tube dealers whose integrity, tube knowledge and tube selection skills you trust? If you prefer, feel free to private message me.

Thanks for your help.

I would have to say all the above are good dealers, so I've heard. But I have to add tctubes.com to the list. They are good tubes, the nos stock is awesome (much more than what's on the website) and Tyler has been awesome to me as far as service. The fact that they're in the city next to mine (I live in MN) has been icing on the cake.
I have dealt with with tube depot,Vintage Tube Services,and the tube store All fast with good advice and quick service.Not the same with Upscale Audio AND MISTER ATTITUDE Kevin Deal No ever again.
Here's a BAD experience tale...for no reason in particular I ordered a matched pair of gold pin blah blah Psvane 12AX7-T IIs from China. They arrived with one tube looking sadly oversprayed and off kilter. I had 'em send a second pair (sent the first ones back) and after various angry (from me anyway) Ebay rants they sent me a second pair that are fine. Took forever. The good news is that these tubes are the best sounding 12AX7s I've ever heard. Next time I'll get 'em from Grant Fidelity in Canada!
I've bought a bunch of tubes from Upscale over the years - including one binge purchase of (IIRC) 6 different output tube types in matched quad sets to rotate thru my Prima Luna mono amps. I've always had a great experience at Upscale and I've got nothing but good things to say about Kevin. Just one more data point for you.
