Changing tubes on C2300

[fortherecord]

Who sells the EAT tubes and where are they made?

Will the EAT 12AX7 fit in the 2300 with the shields? Is there anywhere to get them for less than 225.00 each?

I would love to see what the 2300 looks like with the EATs with the cooler. is there any way we can see a picture of the tubes installed with the cooler?

Thanks

I had no trouble getting the EAT tubes into the C2300. I don't use that stabilizer bar. I've got tube dampers built into the EAT and use Herbie's dampers on the other tubes. I haven't looked inside in a while but I think the stabilizer bar might not work with the EATs.

Just curious, does any one see a problem with my doing this? The sound is great.

Would the Herbies dampers work on the golden lion tubes? Can you please provide a link to the Herbies dampers?

Thanks

Mike.......I don't see any problem with leaving the tube support bar removed from the C2300. I believe its primary purpose is to keep the tubes secure in their sockets and upright during transport. It is so easy to remove and replace the support bar that I have not thought of leaving it off. It would be too easy for me to misplace it.
