Hi Guys,
 
I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me if these are any good? Their worth and value? What should I look for in them before hitting the buy button. 70$ for a pair. Only testing was done on them was good or bad grid test, no values. The stuff is with a tube junkie who does not know ****.
Guys, are these any good?
 

 

 
 
Thanks
LR
 
Edit: I hate it, these are worth nothing LOL Ignore this post please!

Speaking of 6F8G's i receive  the similar 6C8G  those are usually much cheaper than the 6F8G

These would be ok if you want cheap 5998 and don't mind glass bits in one tube and different branding. It has no effect on the sound. I have bought Chatham 6AS7G and Mullard 6080 from this aussie seller before. As stated he's getting rid of his tubes and amps.

Tubes look pretty good condition and should last a long time.

Alternatively these. No actual readings apart from being good. Looks good and for a bit more you get same Tung Sol branding. These are 5998 equivalent.

At this price it won't last long that's my gut feelings.

Yes I'm highlighting for Raven or anyone else here in need. I myself have 3 5998 and 2 7236. That's enough. Wouldn't mind another pair of ecc31 tho lol.

I'm so tempted with this solid baby ss amp at AUD$320. Burson HA-160. Used btw.
 

 
Mike let's have a look at your Conductor.
 
 
Wait scrub the Burson, I want this Leben cs-300xs instead. Only $1900

The 6f8g tubes I got were very inexpensive. Im not worried about +/- $10.00.. I just wish I had my elise to try them.

If you want a ss amp, buy that Cavalli Liquid Carbon before they sell out. 500 units.

My Hegel DAC will be paired with the Elise (se) ad the carbon (balanced).

Believe me, at $599.00 US., you will never get a bettrr ss amp.

Nah I'm a tube person. See my avatar.

Tweek Geek. That's a funny looking power cable.

aqsw I think your stock tubes will give those a serious run for their money. Both power and driver tubes.

I hope so, when I listened to the Carbon I was amazed.
All my headphones are balanced, so this might make a difference.
Don't take the Carbon as a non contender. I have had many ss amps that cost alot more that cannot hold a candle to it.
