I almost hate to share this, since it will just mean they dry up, but here goes - $25 each NOS 5998 tubes from Vacuum Tubes Radio Tubes - 5,000 different tubes in stock - Over 10 million tubes! - I have ordered from them several times, very reliable guys, and this is a good price for 5998's these days. Just got a spare pair for myself

Thanks for the heads up. Actually thinking of getting a quad set of 6V6 tubes, any recommendations?

Well, at the risk of being caslled a Tung-Sol fanboy (lol), I like the Tung-Sol black-glass 6V6GT. Not sure where to get them, though - I bought the ones I have off eBay (since I have a tube tester).

Well!  I am still looking for four of those - matched-. Does anybody know a reliable seller  that doesn't sell them for an arm and a leg?

 

PS: Got some nice Tung-Sol 7236 from the place Skylab mentioned but they ran out of 5998...First class service as well from Vacuumtubes
