Zentish, hi. Yes - pin spacing (degrees of separation) is the same but pin length is not. 101 requires a WECO socket. Yamamoto makes one for
this tube. Milled Teflon. Machined pins. When I bought a pair about
5 years ago it set me back something like $85. Check with Venus Audio.
I think they are in Lansing MI now. Importer of Yamamoto electronics. Are you sure characteristics are the same between the Sino and WECO?
Better make sure before you order. Do you know how Supratek is running them? Plate voltage and current? Happy Listening! PS - i think DIY HI FI also carries a 101 socket. It too is teflon (but not DuPont i think).
