Hi, can someone let me know which Psvane 101D tube is compatible with the GG DAC?  They have the 101D and 101D-L version.  Thanks.

You want the L with the longer pins unless you want to use an adapter...

Thank you.

Any reputable supplier of this tube?

It appears Grantfidelity is the only supplier of this tube in North America.

They have a good price too, otherwise, EBAY. Cheapest is $530 the pair.

Thanks.  Saw that ad.  This is one of the few rare instances where a North American Distributor price is cheaper than eBay.

Yup!!!

Yup!!!

Just ordered a pair, including a  Psvane WE 274B, through Grant Fidelity.  Will be interesting to compare to the EML mesh plate 45 and EML rectifier tube.

For those of you who have upgraded from a Big 7 to a GG are you finding similar impressions of different tubes and combinations? 

[sfox7076]

I am not.  I have reshuffled.  The 101D is slipping behind the 275A for me.  Rectifiers still seem to be in the same order as of now.
