Hey guys, kind of self-explanatory post. I've looked around and except for 1 store in Canada, there is no US-based store that I see that has these. Any suggestions?

I've had good luck with Ukraine and Lithuania vendors on 6n6p and 6n1p. Finally seeing a few vendors in N America carrying Russian tubes (6n23p-ev) other than just the 6h30(DR). It takes them 2-3 weeks, but the price usually makes up for the time.

Thanks

Ari - the first is the store in Russia, the second is in Canada (the one I mentioned).

pabbi1 - Yeah, as I'm one of the least patient people on the planet, 2-3 weeks sounds like FOREVER! I'll probably end up getting them from the Canadian store.

Found One.

I'm pretty sure I got 8 or 10 on ebay shipped for about that price. I did order one from Glass Jar Audio in a pinch once and Jeff was nice enough to sell me one not in a kit for a more reasonable price than the store you linked to.

I have seen several postings that say they are in Canada, yet the box still comes from the (former) Soviet Union.

Hope you were able to get a couple, as they now show out of stock. In any case, they are really cool tubes.

Yep, just ordered a pair. Damn expensive, but they're in San Diego, CA so shipping will be super fast.

Wow, $18 for a single 6n6p? I didn't pay that much for 8 of them.

Poking around ebay, the price has gone up a little since then, but you can still get 'em for about $2/ea in quantity.

Just got 10 tubes from eBay (and accepted a generous offer from Doug to lend me a pair until they arrive).

I'll have 2 pairs I can let go:
1 pair goes to yyz,
If anybody is interested, I'll have another spare pair.
