I can't get at this web site other than a screen saying USA and Canada ain't allowed to. Is there a work around?

As far as I can make out, it doesn't provide a service at all.

Hi Wa2ise,
I use firefox (isp verizon) and just click on the link to " rest of the world" Svetlana does not do business in North American, importer is PM Components from the UK, sold here under the "Winged C" brand.
Full datasheets and a lot of other information are available if you actually get in.

Hi Gold_xyz

Check out TJ tubes here -
http://www.diyhifisupply.com/diyhs_tj-factory-trip.htm

They don't appear to have their own site. Widely available in the U.S.A, Europe and Japan - well regarded too. Their main competitor would appear to be KRAudio.. Probably first mesh plate globe 300B widely available, also make PX series tubes, 274 rectifiers, and WE101D, WE201D, WE205D etc..


Also Western Electric/Westrex here -
http://www.westernelectric.com/

New plant, and IMHO still one of the best current production 300B if not the best.


KRAudio here -
http://www.kraudio.cz/

One of top review current 300B, also make PX series tubes, 211 and 845

Sovtek/Tungsol/Mullard/Electro-Harmonix (EH)
http://www.sovtek.com
made in a plant in Russia currently for the moment anyway still owned and operated by Mike Matthews.

A V V T is gone but jacmusic still has stock. I heard there was going to be a collaboration between Vaic and Audio Note UK, but no longer see that mentioned on the AN website.

Emission Labs here -
http://www.emissionlabs.com/index-en.htm


MU makes custom tubes for the military and is the only fully integrated producer left in the US. They don't make their own glass but that's about it.

Richardson, makes certain types to order.

Fullmusic and TJ are one and the same IIRC.. I couldn't find the site you posted when I was looking the other day when I posted the list.

This site seems targetted more to the Asian market as all of the reviews and a lot of other information appears to be in Chinese.
The data sheets are in passably good English though (the ones I checked anyway) and have a lot of useful information.

This outfit actually makes lots of good tubes, and many people recommend them. I have heard the 300B globe meshplate and it is very nice. There are plenty of positive English language reviews to be found on the web for many of their products.

Penta Laboratories. Chinese.

Makes 572B, 805, 807, 809, 810, 811A, 812A, 813, 828, 829B, 832A, 833C+D, 866A, 872A among others. Lots of big and/or ceramic types.
