Apparently he no longer has his ad in the classified section, but it seems like he is still making adapters. Here is a link to his user page for anyone who wants to message him.

I have to confess that the EL822 have grown on me over time and are great in my clone Zen amp. My adaptors don't do the Hazen Grid. . . that link to headfi doesn't really reach the Deyan builder, but I sent him a PM there and we'll see.

James turned me on to the EL822 as well and they’ve been in my amp ever since. I had custom adapters made that fit nicely in the amp and make use of the HG mod. Here’s a post with more info and a link to contact Deyan, if you need to reach him.

SOLD

Specifics on tubes in the deal:

19 Russian power tubes - SV83/6p15p-EV versions
16 Russian input tubes - 6n1p and 6n5p (any 6dj8 tube type can be used)
12 5670 tubes that are usable input tubes, with a pin adapter. I am including one adapter (can’t find the other)



Here we have a bunch of assorted Rectifier tubes - several 60’s Sylvania 5Z3’s, several Chinese 5U4G’s and the rest are Russian ‘winged C’ 5U3C. The 5U3C became my main rectifier tubes used - great performance value ‘per dollar spent’.



The tubes alone in this deal, are worth $750 at the least.

This forum has saved me so much time, money, and frustration. I really appreciate educated opinions I can trust.

I'll grab some EL 822's with adapters, adding to the 7189's, the handful of 6p15p-EVs I ordered from Ukraine, the stock tubes, and eventually some Cryotones, and I'll be set.

Thank you all!

For sale are two SE84UFO’s. These are ready for you to setup as monoblocks, and if your DAC has balanced connections, “Fully Balanced” monoblocks. I am attaching a photo that shows the connections for this. The online manual shows this too. Cabling for this is included.

Also included are enough tubes to last you a long time - if you are up in years (like me), possibly the rest of your life. Picture included.

Asking $3200

These amps have the full anniversary mods, and with the included cabling and tubes, that makes the selling price a bargain. Buyer pays shipping and PayPal costs. You can avoid the PayPal fee by paying with Venmo.

Also, these will be shipped in separate boxes to make sure that they make it to you safe and sound. Consider this in estimation of the shipping costs. Shipped from 39208.

Thanks for looking!

If you’d like to enter into the world of HiFi speaker cables, this is a great place to start. A pair of 10’ Canare 4S11G OFC Speaker cables with very nice Furetch spades. These sounded fantastic with my Decware UFO 2.1 and were not “bloaty” like some other (much higher priced) cables sounded. A nice balanced soundstage across the board with these! I’m using all WyWires Diamond and Platinum cables now.
Priced very fair for what they are.
$195 PayPal FF and shipped

Just to add in my experience. My Taboo came with the stock Decware 6P15P .  I tried Telefunken 7189 and they were a noticeable improvement.  Also I like an Austrian made Tungsram EL84 and even an EI EL84 over the stock tubes. Then I took James suggestion and bought EL 822’s from Langrex and custom adapters from Deyan and they sound the best to me and are staying put.
