    The Reference 6J5 Thread (L63, 6C5, 12J5, 6P5, etc.)

    I found this picture from two years ago when I first got it. Look at how the Tele dwarfed the Glenn GOTL I had Lol. By the way, my amp is the first Tele built and is the one shown on the website in this picture. RIP Tomas :disappointed:

    Thank you! Finding matching quads was the hardest part. By the way, for anyone that's interested The Container Store has neat display boxes that can be modified to hold tubes.

    Here are a couple photos showing examples of my 6J5-family tubes. Running quads of these in the Telemachus will give me any sound signature I'm in the mood for. Admittedly, I mostly use the GEC L63 or Raytheon engraved base tubes. From left to right: GEC L63 (early Cossor branded, marked as...

    Thanks. I made those from Hammond project boxes and Belton sockets. They're overbuilt for the purpose but look cool, lol. Yes I'm exclusively 6J5/6C5 on the Telemachus. I'm sold on the concept of using dual single-triode preamp tubes in place of one double-triode tube. If my Sparkos Gemini...

    This is a beautiful headphone in very good condition and is very comfortable. It pairs well with tube amplification and scales nicely with higher end equipment. I just need to clear out some gear hence the sale. The only blemish of note is near the gimbal as shown. Comes with the Auteur...

    As one of the lucky “almost no ones” I can attest the Telemachus is a gem. I’ve also replaced the 6SN7 with 6C5/6J5 adapters and never looked back

    The 6J5 need to be run at 6 volts. Switch to that setting on your amp. The adapters run the 6J5s in parallel so they each see 6V. My favorite is the GEC L63 ST shape with the spiked micas (usually gray glass but clear can be found too). Close second is the 1930's-era engraved base Raytheon...

    Yes you can use a pair of 6J5 in your 6SN7 slot just like Craig. You want an adapter either from @Deyan here or from mrsxuling on eBay. Or you can make your own like I did ( after buying several from Dayan first ☺️). I have two adapters on my Telemachus shown here: Also, ask Zachi...

    One of the best unsung features of the Glenn is the fact that you can use 3-, 4-, or 5-volt rectifiers interchangeably. I spent a lot of time auditioning rectifiers on my Glenn when I had it and I settled on the 4-volt GEC U18/20 (CV31) as my overall favorite. The 53KU you have is my strong...

    Replace that ECC32 with an adapter that holds two 6J5. Then prepare to be blown away. The Chathams and Cossor are prefect for the Glenn. Leave those in and start swapping drivers. I can save you a bunch of time hunting down pairs of 6C5/6J5 and provide you with a few sets for a variety of...
