Psvane purchase
« on: 7 Aug 2013, 04:37 pm »
Hello all I am looking for input on a tube dealer I've not dealt with before.
 Has anyone had any  dealings with Tube-Sales Before ? Just bought some Psvane tube from Grant Fidelity (Spvane?) and found them at tube-Sales for 25% less. love the 12AX7s BTW tried them in my Rogue ares as well as the minimax phono. Now looking to try the 6sn7 and el34
 Thanks Roger

No experience with them, but I bought Psvane tubes from a generic Chinese dealer trying to save money and was ripped off $500.  I would only buy Psvane tubes from Grant Fidelity from now on.

They sell on ebay, here's their feedback:

It is hard to say if the tubes they sell are graded to the same standards as Grant Fidelity.

Some of the tubes GF sells  are   graded differently ,  I  wonder (like dave mentions above) if the tubes   being sold at cheaper prices  are  of the highest  quality  ?
Some of  the tubes at GF   allow to select the  "lower grades" to save some  $$

I have used good component dot com for Psvane tubes and have found them to be very good. The shipping takes a while as they are in China, but the communication from Clark was excellent.

I'd be interested to hear your feedback on those tubes as I am considering them for my phono pre.

Ok so I'm over a year late on this response but I used tube sales with no issues . In rack I initially order the standard grade and sent off notice right away that it was a mistake on my part and I wanted the premium grade. Received a response within a day or to and not a problem the charged the difference and I had in a few weeks. The one box was a bit crushed but everything was fine.  The only complaint I had was the  tube I bought that where a replacement for the  6sn7 did not fit and were noisily in my rogue superman 99 preamp. And rhey would only replace defective tubes. Thatsounds reasonable how ever inconvienient to me .  Fast forward a few months I buy a rogue stereo 90 and the work and sound fine.

I also bought with Clark I was very well attended.

Nice system, mate.  Here's hoping you find a good room.
