I'm in Europe, I can't use the 115V B-Stock from the US.
Never much clearance items on the UK sites and on the EU site they don't do clearance.
Understood.

You could always buy a JJ from Schiit for $25.00 to throw in the mix.
True.
The round one is a Treasure Globe also from the Shuguang. I purchased all of mine from Grant Fidelity in Canada

They may be able to direct you to someone in Europe or maybe sell direct to you. Check out the page above.
Got the Lyr finally and I like it, quite a nice step up from the smaller Schiit stacks.
It came with a Russian 6H8C tube though and the one I ordered extra from them was the same instead of a JJ or Tung-Sol.
So I ordered those Treasure Globes from the link in Canada you gave me, should have them in about 3 weeks with those annoying customs here.
Wondering if I'd buy these clear Sophias as well: https://www.sophiaelectric.eu/us/b/6sn7/0?r=161 .
Schiit recently switched the premium tube option to the JJ instead of the Tung-Sol, but both are very good new production tubes in my experience. If you haven’t already, I’d recommend giving them a try also. They are both at about $25 and imho holds their own pretty well compared to some similarly NOS tubes as well as some more expensive ones.

I can't get the JJ ones from Schiit EU or UK, only US.
A $25 tube from would cost me about 100€ with shipping, 31% tax on the tube + on the shipping and a 35€ administrative cost.
I ordered a tube for the Vali and a Pyst cable a few weeks ago, cost me about the same.
So for 100€ I think it would be better to look somewhere else.
Ordering in the US too is expensive from here, certainly for lower priced items.
It goes to me, Bill. How do you think I manage to buy of those nice tubes?Not to derail things, but just out of interest who does that 35 euro administrative fee go to? The post/carrier, or the government? Kinda sounds like another tax by another name.
