    Hum and other problems with "NOS" power tubes?

    Thanks for your help guys. Cleaning the pins with alcohol and cotton swabs solved the problem :-) I tried finding a metal bristle brush, but my hardware store didn't have one.

    Hum and other problems with "NOS" power tubes?

    Thanks for your replies! I sent a mail to the dealer after reading them, he assured me the tubes were tested good on his AVO tester, but that if the hum persisted after pin cleaning I could return them for a refund :-)   I can't seem to find Deoxit anywhere in Denmark, but will try with some...

    Hum and other problems with "NOS" power tubes?

    I bought some Tung-Sol 5998s (8 of them) from a dealer. They were sold as NOS, but I guess I've been ripped off.   Some are top getters, others bottom getters. Several of them have a hum, and one makes a cracking sound. My question is this: if a tube really is NOS, will it hum? Make cracking...

    Amp recommendation for AKG701.

    I think you will be better off searching the forums, rather than posting. There is a ton of information on K701/K702 amp pairing here already, and you'll be missing out on most of it if you expect someone to write you an executive summary...

    Where are the stickies?

    I am looking for some of the stickies too. I suppose it's safe to assume the conversion from the old to the new platform missed the sticky flags, which is regrettable. I agree there can be too many stickies, but there are some really good guides that should have been kept sticky.   The end...

    Quote:   I experienced fatigue with the Sylvania 7236 tubes in my WA2 with K702 headphones. The russian 6N13S, however, aren't fatiguing at all.

    Woo Audio 2 rectifiers tube rolling

    I've tried these two: Ei (Elektronska Industrija Yugoslavia) EZ80 (stock tubes) Tungsram EZ80 -- with Sylvania 6DJ8 drive tubes and Sylvania 7236 power tubes. With my setup, I couldn't make out any differences. Big disclaimer here, though, as I've only had the WA2 for about a month and...
