You need to be a member to access valve bank etc.
Well worth while, even just for the magazine.

Valves arrived today, intact.

Besides the 6CM5's there was a 6DQ6A, a 1B3GT and a 6Y6GA.

Thank you. Smile

"6AQ5s, they are becoming an audiophool tube"

Will have to move my 6AQ5s to audio category - may have 50 ~100

Have to admit one of the best amps I heard was a Grundig that had P/P EL90 (6AQ5s)

Just looked in my valve bank, there's about 30 or so used 6AQ5s.

I have one 6AQ5 but I’m about to buy four for $40 which is much better
