Many audiophiles love amplifiers based on vacuum tubes rather than transistor-based models, for their warm, effortless sound. But
there’s another reason: ease of tweaking. You can’t just swap out the transistors in your solid state amplifier for those from another brand, and
check to hear what difference there is in the sound. But you can with vacuum tube models. A simple tube replacement – tube rolling it’s called – can improve
the sound of many tube-based amplifiers.
At Addicted To Audio we carry vacuum tubes from some of the finest specialist brands in the world, such as

The best place to buy vacuum tubes
There are two great ways to buy vacuum tubes. The best way for most people is at a quality retail outlet in your city. That way you can have a listen, try some out, see whether they feel like a good “fit” for you. And, best
of all, receive expert advice. But if you’re confident that you already know what you want, consider purchasing your vacuum tubes direct from us at Addicted To Audio. We are an authorised New Zealand reseller for all our products. We provide full service and after sales support. And we ship fast.
