Gain is on the high side but they don’t distort like a 6C8G could for example. I have my heaters at 6.3v. I still run my DV at 116v.I'm seeing pair of Brimars from $35 to $85...Gonna have to do some homework. How's the gain on those?
I guess you should just be happy you didn't buy one of his flute reamers - god knows what you'd have gotAuction link - Link
Here it is for those who want to read. I purchased a Tung Sol 6SN7GT BGRP that was advertised as an RCA from 1972 for $25 shipped. Yeah, LOL. It was tested as NOS and it tested remarkably bad. I would of course be nice about this situation considered the price paid but his response is pure gold. The guy is completely daft and is it's worth the read..
No response yet so I sent another..
He responds after I file for a return that the tube wasn't as advertised.
My response.
Aaaand he takes the coward way out. Ignores my message and has nothing to say.
Loss for words.
This will be the first negative feedback I have left in over a decade.
If you are also confused, he thought the Hickok 800A min/new test values I mentioned in my message were me bragging about how expensive my tester was. This guy defines thick headed.
LOL! Too much. Wish I'd saved a couple emails from "Old_Guy_Radiola" (the predecessor to BangyBang). He didn't mince words in calling me a stupid, uneducated, dumbass MF'er when I politely questioned why the (obviously) relabeled Tung Sol he was peddling for huge $$ had etched dots on the glass. "GE never made tubes you moron" was the funniest part of his response, other than threatening to turn me into the Tube Sellers Association for prosecution. From what I heard he sold all his inventory to BangyBang and got out of the business, so it's not the same person (but they HAVE to be related somehowAuction link - Link

Wait! What?!? He has flute reamers? Sorry, @therremans but the blacklist thing will have to wait for a bit.I guess you should just be happy you didn't buy one of his flute reamers - god knows what you'd have got
Haha somewhere in there. Whoever set it up did a banging job. It’s able to sort out the liars quite well.But I'm confused on how much your tester cost. Was it $300, $1300, or $2600?
Well you know, Hickok 800A. Obviously 800. American Dollars. Namedropping and showing off as usual. Lol.But I'm confused on how much your tester cost. Was it $300, $1300, or $2600?
Yeah, really. Especially since the "A" is a 10x multiplier.

In fact, I read various accounts of you hanging out with Saul Marantz, Sidney Harman, and Avery Fisher…all breaking new sonic (and behavioural) ground…I lived in New York when I was a young'un. Does that count?
