WiWi tubes. Hong Kong

Lost in transit, so be more careful … oh never mind.

I think he’s got some RCA ones too. If so they wouldn’t be cheap. But they ought to ship safely.

Trying to source in the UK, may try HK if that fails as buying from the US has been a mare recently.

I’ve only dealt with Lorenz at WiWi once, but he was very professional.

I have dealt with him several times with no problems.

Same as this. Very helpful.

Various vintages, and some current models, of AN JP preamps use the Alps RK50 potentiometer, which has been like hen’s teeth over the past few years, but it appears Mouser have some in stock

which is nice

The price is nice…for Mouser!

agreed, but less spendy than the last few I have sourced from various corners of t’interweb

try Octopart, Mouser are the least costly :scream:

Fortunately I have no reason to buy one at the moment!

I can’t speak for the price, but their delivery is still holding up very nicely. I placed an order around 23:30 on Monday and the box was in my hand at 10:30 this morning. 59 hours for picking, packing and delivery from Mansfield TX and the delivery (FedEx, trackable all the way) was ‘free’ on a £38+VAT order.
