If you have equipment that uses vacuum tubes and use russian import tubes, might want to start shopping around and get some for the future.

The prices are going way up on tubes in general, but for the russian workhorse tubes they are going waaaay up and the stock is limited

totally understand that some may not like the russian tubes and perfer NOS or ??, but IMO the JJs and EH tubes work pretty well in most situations, are robust, and a fraction of what an American or British or German NOS tube costs.

Anyway, do some googling if you are thinking about shopping for tubes. I found an old standby electronics supply house that hasn't raised their prices and got a bunch of matched EL84 power tubes and 12ax7s (JJs and Sovtec) for future use.
