Apologies as I inadvertently missed your question. My TU-05 has no CE marking on it, nor is there any CE conformity declaration in the user manual.
 
Good luck with customs as they can be a pedantic bunch.

A question to all
- anyone here who got his tu-05 amp shipped to europe and getting problems with customs due to missing CE sign or CE conformity declaration?
- is there a CE sign on the tu-05?

thanks for this information. German customs can just refuse to give you your parcel so i will check this topic with the manufacturer maybe sending him a CE label.

Thanks god that a CE label needs no CE label to be labeled as CE conform

UK Customs wrecked a Polish valve amplifier that I imported a few years ago as it had a granite casing and their scanners couldn't penetrate the rock. So they used an endoscope camera then dismantled it looking for drugs and reassembled it incorrectly. Luckily my friend is an electronics guy and he sorted the amplifier out.
 
Sending a CE label is an excellent idea.

Ordered my pair of philips dl92 yesterday (sunday), they were shipped today, will get them tomorrow, price including shipping is euro 14.50 or less 20 usd a pair!

Thats a great price!

It is a little hard to wade through all the posts here so I thought I would link to my photo tutorial post about preparing NOS tubes for use, hope it helps!

Ianmedium - You may have noticed that i found a great source and have posted the address etc here? It is where i ordered my set.

 

[ianmedium]

Yes, thank you. I am staying out of the game for the moment as I have these rare tubes and just want others to have the opportunity to get hold of some.

May I ask where one might obtain an official-looking CE label? When I return to Europe, I would ideally like to take my equipment with me

Chaps, I've e-mailed Shikada-san about CE certification & sticker for his amps. Lets await his reply.

That was quick. Shikada-san responded. He will look to see how to get the TU-05b certified.

GermanGuy,
 
I emailed Mr. Kunzig two days ago about acquiring various valves and he hasn't replied yet - should I have translated my message into German to elicit a response? 
 
Thanks,
Andy.

I also got no feedback up to now for my request, must be relatively busy with sending out all the incoming orders. By the way, if you want your message translated into German i can do that!

CJG888 - it is a difference if you get a parcel ( then by law you are the official importer of a product, wether you want to sell it or not) or you are just returning home from a vacation and have something with you ( then you are just the owner or end user).

 

[smial1966]

GermanGuy,
 
Thanks for your kind offer of help. 

 
Just received an email from Mr. Kunzig saying that he's on holiday until next Monday (10th) and will reply to valve purchase enquiries then. 
 
Cheers,
Andy.
