A fuesday may prevent reaching a FRIday

ROFL!! Good one!

The seller just relisted these Frankies. At that price it's hard to understand why they weren't initially snatched up almost instantly. But in case anyone missed it, now's your chance.

Not to mention the glass isn’t “smoked”. Such delusion. Wonder what did it.. also, an important tube collector, huh? I guess that justifies the price, as this anonymous important person owned the tubes.

I only like bulbs with a high level of security. You never know! Helps me sleep at night.

If you browse their listings, it’s a bunch of acquired crap. Probably from estate sales. Their prices are about 3-5x.

LOL! I, for one, would never buy tubes from unimportant people regardless of how overpriced they were.

They had a pair of Western Electric 422A's (rectifiers) listed at $3000. I put it on my watch list. Have no need or use for them, but as that was at least 3X the going market price I wanted to see what they went for. An hour after I "watched' them I got an offer from the seller at $1600. Seems they are listing at sky high prices just to see if anyone bites, and if not they come down pretty substantially. If someone wanted those Frankies I'd shoot an offer of $50 (a fair current market price) and see what happens.

• must be from Thomas Jefferson’s personal collection;
• internally what?;
• no difference between a bulb and a tube? must all be pre-GEs;
• ‘huntandpeck’ mode: hunt for prey, peck their wallets.

Still working out a refund for that fuse.. I’ve read that fuses do have to burn in and will mellow out.. I’ll try another and report back in time. @Slade01

Hello. I received a full refund on that fuse, . Can someone please pull the fuse out of their dv and let me know type and rating it is? Should be a 3A 250V, fast or slow blow?

Mine is a 3A 250v fast blow.

Mine is a 3A 250v fast blow.

Is the DV itself a fast blow?

For sure it's a good burner

Thanks -- you already got me buying cables. What's next. Quantum Nuclear Fuses? Lol. For real though - I do read that ceramic fuses allegedly make for better/cleaner SQ.

Glad that you asked! Your system will not be complete without these in silver ($2500 USD each)……

wow, where is the platinum option?

I think the goal is to bypass metals all together and use string theory to send the signal via the quantum dimension and avoid all these inferior earth metals.
