When I contacted Kurt directly via email to order his 3TF7 replacement and also the antenna balun, he offered a 5% discount for the direct order via Paypal.
I agree, his products are top notch, his delivery is prompt and his service level is great. I haven't tried the 26Z5 replacements - I replaced the 26Z5's with ss rectifiers and no apparent ill effects.
Your R390A looks great. I have two that Chuck has gone through. He is meticulous as to detail and function and very particular about quality. I also highly recommend his work.

The more I thought about it, the more of a good idea it seemed to me to go
ahead and get BOTH the pair of 26Z5s and a 3TF7 from Kurt. The obvious
quality, as well as the ever-increasing costs associated with the
hollow-state versions, convinced me. Also, Kurt is great to deal with.

I apologize for the poor resolution. These images were taken 3 or 4 cameras
back. I now have a nice 16mpxl Nikon D7000, and promise better shots as
practically the 1st thing I do after putting in Kurt's excellent upgrades.
You CAN tell what a great job Chuck did, however.
