I'm looking for a replacement for 2P3 tubes in my headphone amp. They are very sensitive to vibration. Also, since I can't find anywhere to buy these, I'm
hoping to find a cross that's easier to find. I know some of the tube gurus
here will have an answer.

It's not in any database I have access to. Is it Chinese or Russian? What model headphone amp? Do you have a picture of it or a link to a site with a picture?

It's a Little Dot I. A cheap Chinese made. I think it's a Chinese tube.
Two 1B2's and four 2P3's. WWW.little-tube.com. Got it on EBAY.
I've tried their site direct for info, but no response. They have tube sets for sale, but I have no idea how to get their attention. I may have to have
one of the Chinese speaking software guys at work try contacting them.
It may be time to splurge for a Woo or some other brand that has some support.

It's a parallel cathode, holy crap. Let me go dig through the garage a little.

I thought that 300Bs and 2P3s were interchangeable. I could swear that I've seen a couple of amps that said they could use either/or.

They aren't even close. 300b is a power triode, used in single ended amps (not to mention it's about 15-20 times larger than his 2p3's).
I've got nothing man, still looking, but coming up empty.Last edited by RuSsMaN; 12-19-2005 at 04:52 PM.

I wonder what it was then....I'll have to look under my bookmarks when I get home. There's some tube out there that replaces it, I know I've seen it somewhere and recently.

It gets the job done. Hd650's are hard to drive, and the LDI does it well.

I bought my LD2 used and it came with all the tubes I needed. No extras though.
