The best place for Canadians is http://thetubestore.com/ in Hamilton. It would be one day Post service to you. I buy from http://www.cedist.com/ for my power tubes and http://www.newsensor.com/ for some preamp but I think you need a business number to get stuff from them.

Used to buy from Songbird Music (Toronto, Ottawa). Decent prices but they no longer exist.

RAndyVanSykes told me he just steals them from the modern Canadian TVs and they work great

the tube store - they match power tubes to amazing specs, fast shipping, and excellent service overall.

although i had a bad EH go with their last bunch i ordered but i believe that was tube brand issues and not them - my power tubes still sound awsome and are still going strong.

highly recommend them

I get mine from the Tube Store.
It used to be Dougs Tubes, but shipping is easier from The Tube Store

i will buy my preamp tubes from doug's tubes from now on. they do quality control checks on all of their tubes, burn-in's of chinese high gains and such, and match them as well if you request.

power tubes though - thetubestore. excellent prices and awsome service/variety.

Yah...another vote for the Tube Store here!

I've had bad tubes from both places over the years
Returns are easier for me with the Tube Store being in Canada.

hey, our TVs have great tone.

I live 20 minutes from The Tube Store, I walk right in and rape their inventory.
There may be a few good tubes left.

 

[Phrygian]

The Tube Store for sure, and every once in a while I order from Tube Depot in the states. I can't remember why I had to order from TD last time but I know there was a reason for it. I think it was to get JJ KT88's.
