Which is, arguably, three paper plates glued together? But it is indeed an upgrade, I agree. Go dad!

Oh, come on. We had corrugated cardboard. What kind of a peasant do you take me for?

Speaking of tubes, There's a pair of mid-late 1950's Tung Sol ECC88's I've found that are selling at a low-ish price. Are these worth it? They'd go into a Freya N.

"Worth it" is a very subjective thing. From the financial side, what are they selling for, and have they been tested (and any test data provided)? From the value side, whether you like them or not can only be determined by you.

I expect @Ripper2860 to chime in with something along the lines of, "Is that a tube in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"

10" tube anyone.. :-D
