It depends what you call expensive, the 6BX7-GT is listed at only $12 at Vacuum Tubes in Florida. All the tube sellers on ebay in europe are making their money by charging you around £20 for shipping.Hello everyone
unfortunately in Europe the 6bx7 tube is very expensive and it is almost only available in the USA!
what would be a good alternative according to you?
If memory serves, we are only running about 5mA through each triode so an ECC88/6922 would do equally well.The 6BL7 is $10 against $12 for the 6BX7, looks like a possible sub.
