Tube socket for 3CX1500A7 tube-socket broken
Sorry to be a pest guys!!
?
I've become the proud owner of a Dentron DTR-2000L amp with a broken tube socket and a missing cooling fan.
This came from an estate and I'm sure that the SK was not using this amp.?
?
I could use a suggestion on a fan, as I understand that the muffin fan was NOT a good choice for a fan.
The other question is if any one here has had experience with the Chinese sockets on E-Bay.? Here's the auction number.
184967626094.? $38.50 a great price, if the thing is any good.?
?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
?
Thanks!!!

The porcelain part of the socket are cheap at hamfest, Johnson 273 I believe. ?It gets expensive with the copper grid tabs.

开云体育Ah. OK. I have gold plated ones here that I got from Mableaudio
many years ago. I know that they do silver as well. I can add that the sockets have nice spring tension on the pins. That goes for the 3-500Z, 811A/572B and 807 types as well. Cheers, Alek. On 20/12/2024 6:00 am, mike repinski
