I was very bemused as a youngster watching the Golden Girls when Blanche said she was going to "spank her fanny" I had visions of a geriatric vertical bacon sandwich red and bruised from being disciplined!!!

Doug's Tubes.
Just ordered a few of what you're after, and got a great price and fast shipping. Also, not too many places you can call the guy at home/on his cell phone for advice and to place your order as well. Eurotubes were pretty helpful too, but I haven't placed an order with them.
Hope this helps.

I like thetubestore.com and thetubedepot.com (remove "the" if one of those doesn't work). I've bought from both and they charged me less in shipping than Doug's, they all have about the same selection and price.

I hope you're thinking of putting the Shuguang or Sovtek in the first position right? That's a massive blend of totally different tubes.

He's a pretty cool dude, you can actually call and talk to em and he'll recommend to you what you're looking for. No bullshit. No hassle.
