Audio Innovations "the First"

replaced the original 8-pin oktal sockets with Azuma UX-4 sockets.

The stock Audio Innovation "First" uses Chinese made 2A3 tubes with an oktal socket. These tubes are getting hard to find these days, but more important they sound much less then the Sovtek monoplate 2A3's or the Fullmusic meshplate 2A3's (these last are absolutely the best we know)
