Bunch of options here:  http://taperssection.com/index.php/topic,49078.0.html

Also, consider 5751s instead of 12AX7s.

I buy tubes from either http://thetubestore.com/ or http://www.tubedepot.com/

It looks like both of these links are in the Brian's above mentioned post. I'll have to check out some of the other retailers in that post. Thanks Brian.

Out in CA.... they seem to have it together and travel extensively looking for rare, original tubes still being kept around..

Good luck -

They also usually have a lot of high-end used gear for sale. I bought from them once and Kevin treated me well.
