Eddie Current tube sockets

[ironbut]

Just wondering if anyones tried Craig's teflon, pressure adjustable tube sockets?

They're very $$$ ($70) but if I was building a 300B/2A3 amp using "the good stuff" parts, it wouldn't be totally out of line.

I have those teflon tube sockets in my Eddie Current Equilibrato and they are great sockets. The tubes are easy to get in and out and are very well made. I'm not an expert on tube sockets, but I love them.

x2. The tubes seat well and you have good sense of contact adjustment when adjusting the screws. You never feel as if the sockets are too loose fitting - or so tight that you might fly backwards when pulling a tube out. I can't say how they are going to like the long term though, but they do seem very high quality.
