Allot of rowing for you to get to Florida USA.
May have just ordered all he had not sure though.
Might as well put in a order he is open now just paid him and he will ship by
the end of the day.
Wow! That's below dirt cheap, they must be used?

I just bought some 1633s and other tubes
If you look he has 5998s for $20 don't know what he charges to ship to AU.

I wish I was hot I hate the cold want to trade places.

Can you PM the link Glenn? Thanks.

I put in an order for four 5998. Let's hope I get a reply and it is really 5998. Is there another 5998? It can't be so cheap for a new 5998. :ksc75smile:

No he don't sell used tubes. That is were you bought your EL3Ns from I think.
Well I spoke with him but ended up buying 8 EL3Ns (low hours) from a seller on epay. That's the private seller who was high on shipping and I got him to lower it.

There is, the 5998A which is more like the 6080 bulb type. @2359glenn are your sure these are the domino plate ST type 5998s (e.g. original Chatham/ Tung Sol 2399/ 5998)? I don't have any interest in buying more at the moment but I thought I should toss out this info.

Hi Joe
You might want to put those socks on this morning very cold here cant imagine how cold it is in Ohio
16 F here -16 F in New York were our kids live. My daughter was smart and moved to Florida 60 F.


No kidding, it was 3 F when I left to go to work, it is this time of the year, Jan-Feb that I ask myself, what in the heck are you doing here!

Your daughter has the right idea. 60 F would be so welcome right now, I got stiff just getting my butt to the garage to get in the car!

I started listening using GEC 6080 last night. 10 songs each on HD800 then repeat on Eikon. Then I moved onto Bendix 6080wb. Now I'm on GEC 6as7g. All the while using Telefunken c3g/s as drivers. I'll summarise a few days later because I want to repeat this several times. :ksc75smile:

I'll just say this for now. Glenn's OTL amp sounds crazily good with these tubes.


Great power tubes to be using in your test...they will all sound great , probably all of my favorite power tubes.

Man, I can't hardly keep up with the thread, LOL

Yll

And I am in LA at the moment, 12 C. I can't connect with all this F you are talking about. Further, I have been struggling to understand how fast mph is. I thought 70 was slow. :dt880smile::dt880smile::dt880smile:

Ha ha, watch your speed Arnold! I hope you are having a wonderful time here in the states.

Right now, you picking to go to L.A. instead of N.Y. this time of year...you are a Genius :L3000:

Down to -10 F a few days back here in Nebraska and it's forecast -17 F on New Years day.

I vote we set up an amp exchange program with the folks down-under; 300Bs to the U.S. and EL3Ns to Oz during our winter (their summer) and vise versa! What do think Oz land? :)
