    Thank You for letting us know about the possible tariffs. I just ordered 2 sets of driver tube sets for my Folk headphone amp from you guys. I have a large box of 6n6p tubes and a tube tester that I will have to learn to use since tubes are getting harder to find. Wish me luck.

    Hi from California. Love what you guys do. FYI, the discount code isn't being recognized. Cheers!

      Yup I goofed up the code in one place, below the video, it's fixed now. Thanks for the heads up.

    Love the videos! Would love a 6SN7 with a 9 pin mini base! Is this possible or I suppose an adapter would do for this?

      @@paulhovenga4138 wrong way around, it's not practical to go from octal to miniature 9 pin (though it can be done). But you can take a 6CG7 or 6GU7 both very close to the 6SN7 electrically and adapt them to the 6SN7. This is the wish of many owners of amps running the 12au7, which even though electrically very similar to the 6SN7, sounds very flat and meh in comparison. The better solution is to choose your tube gear, first based on the best sounding vintage types and next on the build/circuit/reputation of the manufacturer. When we design a new Kit Amp, we always start with the tubes.

    What power tube will you use when you build a Rocket power amp?

      @@Pksparty2112 The prototype in development is a hybrid, with a tube driver (6N6P) and a solid state output stage operating in Class A. It's our first hybrid, so we'll see how it sounds. Note this is the only way to get an affordable kit mono block with power.

    Have any 6km6 ? Looking for 4, 6, or 10. Thanks

      We might have a few floating around but likely not enough from the same manufacturer to even make a matched pair, never mind a quad. Sorry!

      @charleslambton7836 If I need a single 6km6 I will hit you up. Thank you for letting me know. I recently came into possession of well over 1000 tubes probably closer to 2000. From the old big glass to the tiny, octal, locktal, compactron , ect . I've been sorting, testing, and learning . Your video's are a great help ! Keep up the great work guys, I appreciate your efforts. Happy 2025!
