Reliable source of Russian 6as7g triodes?

[Psilonaught]

Time to retube my Atma-sphere monoblocks, so I need 24 6as7g.

Anyone recommend a reliable source?

I would prefer Russian over Chinese.

Sorry if this is not the same but Watford Valve have some 6AS7GA GEC valves at a decent price . I have always found them to be spot on with description and quality .

The GA version isn't reliable in the OTL circuit unfortunately.

I’d check with Atma as there is not a great difference between 6as7g and 6as7ga , latter having slightly lower max plate voltage 250V vs 275V and slight difference in power dissipation 13W vs 14W unless there is something else I’m missing
