Aussie group buy for Starving Student
Jun 30, 2008 at 12:14 PM Post #17 of 130
Just checking tubes and sockets, I'll order from Radio Daze:


2x tube: 19J6 $2.25
2x socket SKT-7-M1 0.95


+ shipping, jarpy you bought from them do I need to specify a particular shipping service?

How many sets should I get?

Send them an email asking about freight options. They are very easy to deal with and typically respond quickly.

I'll buy 3 sets of tubes and sockets.

Get at least 2 sets of tubes. If you accidentally leave your amp on overnight you will almost certainly lose of your tubes.

Ok, this is the numbers I've got so far, I'll order tonight or tomorrow, but can you please let me know if you want extra tubes, since according to rds, spares might come in handy:


Code:

Code:
[left] sets extratubes fordgtlover 3 2 m0b1liz3 2 2 Pandaman 2 2 Daveze 1 4 rjad 1 2 gz76 2 2 Jingo Lingo 1 2[/left]

Here I am taking a set as 2 tubes + 2 sockets, but extra tubes are singles, not pairs.

I haven't been following the design thread well enough but can you explain or clue me towards why this would be? I almost always leave my amps on for a long time, equal parts of intended and unintended...

Oh, and I suppose I'd best get say 4 extra tubes.

why do you say that? I mean I would recommend getting at least 2 sets of tubes since they do go out eventually, but why would leaving the amp on overnight hurt them?
