These NOS 6N14N used in the Maz or Z Wreck Jr...are there any new manufacturers of these tubes?
What is the NOS supply like? Once it is depleted, is everyone going to have to start using El84? That might not be terrible but it sounds like the 6N14N was selected intentionally and had some audible benefits over a standard el84 in those platforms.

Perry probably still has the 6N14N tubes available.

Seems to be plenty of them around...but of course prices are going up. EL84's are not a bad option, in fact my old MAZ18 NR came with JJ's when I bought it new and they sounded great.

I've got a couple of matched quads of JJ EL84s from the early 2000s in my stash. I bought them for my MAZ 38 which I no longer have. Great sounding tubes but they just didn't last as long as the Soviet mil-surp types. I'll probably eventually sell them on the forum. There will be tubes available, just maybe harder to find. I've always had good luck with JJs.
