In the OP you said you were going to use some 'fancy smansy' ones. Inspired by your amp projects, I am going to order some for a console Ampex and thought I might go 'high end'. What do you like or use?
 
I like Auricaps myself, and they aren't terribly expensive either. I usually get them at Antique Electronic Supply.

Here's the sockets for the 6SN7s Ken. Salvaged from an old Tek scope and polished up.:yes:

Cool Cadkid, be sure to give us your opinion when you get them. Be warned though, they will sound harsh in the upper mids untill they run a few hours (or a day or two). I sometimews turn the amp on and leave for awhile (upstairs) to keep my ears from bleeding.:D

Hey Ken, I gots amp parts hangin everywhere mang. Whatcha think of the heavy hide on the PT lams? I think it may work.:yes: The motor runs may get a different color, I'm justy experiemnting with the hammered silver.:scratch2:

It's a real aggresive "pebbley) splatter, to hide the lams. I'll get a better pic when it's down on the ground. It has about 10 different colrs in it. Here ya go

Then you gotta ask yourself; "What the heck is that, and why does this amp need two of them"?:scratch2:
