Decware fans?
« on: 16 Mar 2024, 08:15 pm »
Wanted to ask if we had any Decware fans in our group? I personally have a Torii MK V and thoroughly enjoy tube rolling with it. They are paired with Zu Soul Supremes (MK V) and I find that while my setup isn’t a bass champion, the overall presentation is brilliant with a precise soundstage. “The speakers disappear” is such cliche, but something I am fortunate to experience when I listen to music…. Only wish would be to find an excellent, cheap source of NOS tubes…

    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

My favorite tube vendor are Andrey and his wife Natasha at GSTubes.com:

Check out the Decware forum for tube rolling information and vendors. The Tori MKV is a great and very versatile amp. There are a lot of great insights over there. I've had good luck with Viva Tubes for new issue Sensor (Gold Lion, Mullard, Tung-Sol, etc.). For NOS try Jim McShane @

It was blocked AGAIN by the authorities of your country, as GSTUBES.COM is a Russian shop located in Moscow, with site hosted in USA.

I ordered a Zen Triode in January 2022 and I'm finally getting close to the top of the Decware build list. I expect its arrival in a month or so. Looking forward to how it pairs with a couple of my easy to drive OB speakers.
