🇺🇸 Our tubes aren't imports. They're American legends coming home.

Most of our vacuum tubes were originally made in the United States during the golden era of audio — the 1950s and 1960s. Today, they return home as carefully selected and tested treasures for collectors, musicians, and audiophiles.
Each tube is:
✔️ Of American origin (unless clearly specified otherwise)
✔️ Individually tested with professional-grade equipment (Amplitrex AT1000)
✔️ Packaged with care and sealed for protection
✔️ Accompanied by accurate documentation for customs
We do everything possible to ensure re-importation to the US is smooth and duty-free, whenever applicable (HTS code 9801.00.10).
If your order includes American-made tubes returning home, we include the proper declaration to help minimize or eliminate duties.

Update – April 2025
Temporary Suspension of U.S. Import Tariffs
Following recent decisions by the U.S. administration, the newly introduced import tariffs have been suspended for 90 days on a wide range of product categories, including many audio-related components.
This means our U.S. customers can now shop with greater confidence, with significantly reduced risk of unexpected customs charges.
We will continue to provide all necessary documentation for the “U.S. Goods Returned” customs treatment — even beyond this suspension window — to ensure full support and peace of mind.
