    Hey all. I've heard a bunch of new production 2A3 in the DNA Stratus, but I am still curious to try "affordable" dual plate vintage 2A3s.


    If you have a pair of gray or black dual plate RCA or RCA variant 2A3s for sale hit me up. Brent Jesse is on vacation so figured I would try here. Thanks!

    I'm also looking for any good condition RCA 5U4G for sale. I'd like to compare to my KenRad 5U4G.

    If nothing comes through here, I recently had a very good experience visiting Vintage Tube Services. You have to call on a Friday to place an order and it'll probably take months to fill, but he has tons of stuff that isn't on his stock list including used, but new testing tubes, for cheaper than the NOS prices on his stock list. Everything he has listed is actually NOS, not just tests as such, and he has a more extensive tube testing/matching setup than I could have imagined.

    Edit: Just noticed the online ordering page, which says that it ships in 2 days, and has several 2a3 options.

    Thanks! It's hard to find good nos tube stores through Google. I'll check it out.
