where should I buy tubes?

[LAARS]

It really all depends on what your looking for. Here's a list of dealers that I've been using for quite some time.

KCA/NOS - KCA NOS Tubes. Audio tubes for guitar amplifiers and audiophile equipment. 12AX7, 6L6GC, 12ay7, el34, el84, Fender amplifier,5AR4, 5U4GB, cv4004, 6SN7, 8417, 7027, gz34, Mullard, EF86, 6ca7, 6bq5, 7025, 12at7 | kcanostubes.com | Mike K. is a straight shooter that deals in NOS/ANOS/new production stuff.

Doug's Tubes - Vacuum Tubes For Guitar Amps and Hifi Audio | Dougstubes.com He deals in mostly new production tubes, I've always had great dealings with Doug.

Tube Store - www.thetubestore.com - Your online source for amplifier tubes! Once again mostly new production stuff, some NOS but very expensive.

Tube Depot - Welcome to TubeDepot.com! Once again mostly new production stuff, some NOS but very expensive.

If NOS is your thing, Mike at KCA is the man. Very easy to deal with.

Doug is always my first choice. and to tell you the truth, its in this order as your answer.

#1 Dougs
#2 tube store
#3 Tube depot

No issues ever with either of these places... Always get what I order, its quick, and good quality tubes.

How about just asking either Riverratt or Marty here on this very forum if they have what you need? If I lived in the states, they'd be my tube pushers for sure.
