Hello,
I recently replaced a damaged ceramic socket for a 300b. The original sockets would only allow the tube to fit if oriented correctly. Two large pin sockets and two small, no way to install wrong. The replacement sockets will allow for incorrect installation of the tube if I’m not careful. So what did I get some crappy sockets or what? Just curious what others have to say
Thanks

It’s been so long since I got them I don’t recall. No branding on the part it probably purchased through parts express
I’ll take a look at jackband

Seriously look into Jakeband - they are teflon, and the only ones IMO that are not more trouble than they are worth. I have a variety of different brands in use and they are a source of constant headaches, they all have contact reliability problems.
Ceramic types are much more reliable and unless broken I would not replace. Vintage plastic are good as well.
