Better experience than me emailing this guy with his ""authentic Philips E88CC SQ" tubes. lol. Sold for $170. Think @ThurstonX emailed him too.

Is that a Siemens CCA tube?

 

[winders]

I don't like how the word "Siemens" looks, but it does look like an older D-Getter CCa tube. The match between triodes is not god if they 15/11.5 and 15/11.5.

 

[TK16]

Emissions are 15 ma, gm 11.5. Matched if true.

The paint on that tube looks sketchy to me.

Picture number 8 kinda gives me a mad scientist vibe.

Creepy af! LOL

Another thing that's suspect about that Siemens tube, is the codes. Pre 1960, before acid codes. The codes were printed on the front below, or next to the logo. There's no printed code on that tube anywhere.

The tube is supposed to be NIB. The code should be there.

I call fake.

That Siemens font looks wonky. The other d getter on eBay has a proper Siemens font and logo.

 

[Guidostrunk]

Tubesammler, does have a legit d getter listed. $550 doe

one of the tubes is noisy, but still works fine. Anyway it's a bargain. Looks GREAT I bought them for ~150€
