9 pin miniature socket saver. Commonly used in tube testers. Socket savers absorb the main wear and tear from many tube insertions and removals. It's much easier to replace a worn out socket saver than to replace the original socket.

I like using the socket savers to protect the amp. I have bought more expensive ones and ones that required long shipping times. The ones purchased from Antinique were perfect. I wish I had this item before. Thumbs up on this one.

This 9 Pin Socket Saver works as expected. The quality is good, and everything fits together with a secure connection. The price was excellent and the delivery time was just a few days compared to a month with products I have bought from China.

Unfortunately one arrived with a pin out of place (aka not in the socket). The others had bent pins, but could be straightened.

I bought this socket saver to use on my old tube tester. The sockets on the tube tester have a lot of wear from use, this socket saver will prevent the original socket from getting any worse.
It's a useful product.

I used 2 of the Socket Savers in my Fender Greta 2.5 watt practice amps pre-amp tubes . These are great! Will save much wear and tear on the PCB. I plan on using them on all my other tube amps at the next tube change. Please keep them in stock.

It's basically a noval socket with pins soldered to the terminals that reach out the bottom of a cup. These can be unsoldered, and replaced with dead hard solid silver wires from Rio Grande Jewelry supply, and used as a DIY socket adapter. I use tube base P-SP8-477 or P-SP8-479 can be used to make adapters to convert 6V6, 6L6, EL34, 7591, 7027 etc. to 6973, or other tubes. These also fit the Triplett 3444 or 3444A tube tester, and any other tube tester so you don't wear out the sockets testing 100s or 1000s of tubes. These are not as good as the old Vector sockets, but what is?
