Too Much Tube Rolling....

As I keep telling you, the factory tubes for most of these brands are very good, especially with the Line Magnetics. And yes, newcomers, you do get tubes with the units. However, you can sometimes do quite a bit better by going to aftermarket tubes. And the best place to start is with input tubes (12AX7's, 12AU7's, etc.) And my favorite person to deal with so far has been Brent Jesse of Brent Jesse Recordings and Supplies in Hoffman Estates, IL.  Very knowledgable, very helpful, and most importantly very patient. Give him a try, and tell him I sent you. (you won't get any special deals, nor will I, but it will make him laugh) 
Just do not drive yourself crazy tube rolling. I can tell when some of you get the disease. You text or call at all hours of the day and night. OMG! You won't believe how it sounds now. I believe, trust me. Just don't get too spendy and try to reinvent the wheel. 
  Obviously somebody who lays on carpets has had too much of it for today......
​be careful out there!  You've been warned.....
