Hello, I just bought the monoprice Hybrid tube amp, as it was all I could really afford right at this moment in time. After doing a lot of research into tubes and tube amps I settled on this as I am just starting out. One thing I am very interested in is tube rolling. This unit uses two 6N1 and two 6N15 tubes. I believe these are chinese tubes and pretty much the base models. From what I have been reading I can't find replacement tubes to start tube rolling. Can anyone recoomend equivilent tubes from golden lion or even electro-harmonix? Also does anyone know  a good place to buy said equvalent tubes. I have searched the tubestore.com and tubedepot.com without much luck.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Welcome 
6N1 is the Sino version from the Russian 6N1P(6H1n):

Which is a direct plug-in replacement for 6DJ8 ECC88 6922 etc in most audio applications.
Avoid the 6H1n-Bi (impulse).

So there is other versions compatible:
6N1P warmest tone,
6N2P more gain,
6922 best dynamics,
6H30 a super 6922,
6DJ8 most air and micro-detail with a touch less bass,
7DJ8 7V version.
===
6P15P-EV unparalleled in speed and detail, wide bandwith video tube, best sound and transparent EL84 version by a mile.
EL84(6BQ5) warmer sounding.
Ask for 6n15n-EP matched a bargain at $3.70, very good seller:
