Let my fingers do the walking through Asylum Trader the other day, and Shazam!. New in box, $350. I can't wait for the new tube sockets to get here (and the resistors I'm going to destroy when I pull the 'old' sockets).

BTW, these things are a really clean window into the music. Replaced the stock 4 pin tube sockets with Azumas from pcx just to be sure the pin contact was solid. The EMLs are opening up minute-by-minute. I thought at first I should have stayed with the NOS RCA Blackplates, but, no sir. This is cool!

I've been running the EML 2a3 Mesh Plates for year now and can't convince myself to go back to 300b.  Love them!
