Okay, 75 bucks shipping included...last offer.
I got two 50 watt Metal Panel Plexi's PTP. I use only Mullard in the Power Section. Xf2's w/double getters. I like them within at the most 4 to 5 mA apart. I use to like them really close but that's what makes old amps sound good is the different tolerances. If you have a couple pairs I'll take them for the right price. I do not care about labels just the blackburn codes. Nobody see's the labels anyway unless you play the amp backwards. And I do leave the back off to keep'em cooler. I have a TV-7 tester that was calibrated by one of the best so 50gm or so off is no big deal. Shoot me a eamail and I'll get you started on that lester you're looking for. Single getter's will do but someone was quoting top price's there. That may be for NOS in the Box matching Mullard labels and 2mA apart. Like I said box's and labels do not make the tone. It's the tubes, bias, amp and fingers to name a few NICE SCORE!!!!:applaude
Yes I hate "Tests NOS" you know? How can something "test" Unused?....I disagree with you that ALL tubes that one finds that are labeled NOS are coming out of something. Mine have been in my inventory over 10 yrs. When I got them, they were mostly flushed out of audiophile collections/inventories and radio and stereo repair inventories. Most of the other true NOS tubes that I received came from Europe and especially from Britain and 95% of my Mullard tubes came from a friend of mine that worked for Mullard and then for a company that provide tubes for industry and had massive inventories of NOS tubes.
Other than testing.....There is a look about NOS (Unused) as opposed to used, but test new tubes. I pride myself on seeing and knowing the difference.
