A Passion Turned Profession — The Story of Dragan Nikolić
TUBES.RS was founded by Dragan Nikolić, whose journey with vacuum tubes began in the mid 1980s. As a young enthusiast fascinated by audio technology and vintage electronics, Dragan started collecting tubes, amplifiers, and rare components long before NOS became a recognized niche.
Over the decades, his passion evolved into a life’s work—building a vast network of global suppliers, collectors, and experts, ensuring access to authentic, high-quality NOS tubes that are becoming increasingly rare.
Unlike large resellers, TUBES.RS operates with a personal touch. Dragan personally selects, tests, and matches tubes using precision equipment, ensuring every client receives products of uncompromising quality.
