Glad I didn't go for that last one. This one is just as pretty, and got it for $150 less than the last one ended at.....plus half the amount for shipping. I'll be sure and ask the seller to put it in a box before he ships it. :slight_smile:

Funny with these Westons. There haven't been any posted for ages, then suddenly there's 3 of them in as many weeks. With my luck, there will be a totally NOS never used one still taped up in its original box posted next week that will go for $100... :unamused:



oh, great. you too huh?
you gonna order some Chinese take-out and spend the rest of the night in bed with your new honey? :blush:

I did a google search for best vacuum tube 6922.
It took me to a couple places,

and

The Hong Kong Audio Club did a tube shootout. I don't agree with their equipment choices, but they have some interesting, and some predictable results.
see the 2nd link. 3 groups of tubes, and the winner? ........ well, click the link amigo. they talked about tube prices which seemed astronomical, but probably quoting HK dollars.

I mean, those rare earth metals that they put in the tubes in the 50s .... that schist is expensive these days. As we know, they just don't make the tube internals like they used to.
Smoking' rare earth metals, that's the the best high! :bulb:

Don't let anyone else tell you what tubes are best, just go by my top tube list as gospel.

I tried, but there's not a single 6SN7 on there. What gives?

:grimacing:
