The matching doesn't cost anything. Or it never has me. The only ones I match are the power tubes.

Larry, I'm talking about buying tubes as a matched set vs singles
If you have access to a tester and a pile of tubes, sure by all means match them, but if your buying online it's pricier thats all.

They have been shipped. 4 separate boxes, tubes pulled, wrapped and in their own box. WHAT do replacement tubes cost??

Why not listen to the tubes that come with it for awhile then decide if you want to pony up for different tubes? :cyclops:

I was Web, but knowing shipping companies' track record, I thought 'd check.
Well I did get my Mullards because of shipping. But we will pray the shipping Gods are with you. Are they coming Fedex?

Well when Larry shipped my tube amp, he just tossed all the tubes into an old potato sack and shipped them to me. They arrived just fine and didn't sound the least bit all shook up. :cyclops: :joker:
