Does anyone know if this guy is a reputable seller? These are some possibly really good deals.

Also, how do I tell if tubes are fake before buying, if at all possible?

Yes, he is reputable. I have purchased from him a couple times. No problems...

Since you don't use your signature to tell us what you have, I wanted to let you know what devices didn't support the 6N1P tubes. Next time I will just shut up......

Sorry about that. Haven't gotten around to updating my sig yet. I thought you were assuming I had the Lyr 2. Either way, thanks for the reply as it will probably be helpful to someone who knows a little less than me (nothing).

Though your extended ellipsis made you sound a bit harsh.

To my eyes those D-getter tubes appear to be fraudulent, best not to bid on those. Heard that from a prophet. :ksc75smile:

Lmao. Those swiss-tube 2 stars D's are purdy as a picture aren't they? Obviously too perfect NOT to be fake. Great call TK :L3000:

Oh yeah, and by the way, I have made a couple purchases from swiss-tubes. I haven't had any issues.

Right now these 7L4`s are my current favorites. May bite if the price is right. Wonder if there are any sonic differences with the 1960 7L5 D-getters vs the 7L4`s.

The first pair of Heerlen tubes I had opened my mind to what quality tubes can do. They just blew me away with that midrange and musicality. That pair was 1960 2 stars...O-Getters tho. They were NOT like the 7L4's you and I have (got mine from Ivan). My '60 O-Getters were the normal Heerlen SQ...but seeing that it was the first time I heard them they were like Super Heerlens compared to the low-end to mediocre stuff I'd heard up to that point. I'm not sure what the codes are on that swiss-tubes D-getter.

Edit: Oh I didn't see the pictures below on the swiss-tubes ebay listings. Yeah it's 1960 7L5 - my bad.

yay, got my first pair of tubes ready to be picked up :) 1972 voshkods I wanted to try something cheap for starters.

But of course its public holidays and the postal office is closed <.<

edit: nvm it wasnt, got the tubes installed with socket saver.

The other tube glows noticeably less than the other? Also there was this funny noise in right channel, when i plugged my headphone in and i rolled the 6.3mm jack it made "whiny" noise and the faster i did it the louder it got, darn its hard to explain :D

But none background noises etc with the new tubes & raiser.

I have noticed my lyr 2 doesnt get nearly as hot as it did in the first 2 weeks? hmm? Ambient temperature is roughly the same, but the amp feels alot cooler.
