    I don't know about Eurotubes but from what I've heard Watford Valves in the UK are pretty good. A lot of good info on their site too :)

    Yeah, I've used Eurotubes once, and it was pretty good.

    I bought tubes from them before and a week after installing them my amb blew. Technitian said it was because of faulty tube. So watch out, they probably just got a knock during delivery. id go for watford tubes from now on.

    I had to rebias mine a lot lower than the stock ones. He specified this in an email and said it was crucial. I think at the time i was replacing the 6L6's for 6V6's

    I have twice ordered tubes from Eurotube for delivery to Japan. I had no problems and very happy with their help.

    Eurotubes supplied a full retube for my Mesa. 5 x ECC83's and 4 EL84's. They also gave me 2 of the ECC83's in high gain so they break up at a lower volume. All tubes plus Airmail postage came to less that €100. I was happy with that.
