I have a pair of 6J5 Kenrads with painted bases.

Are these tubes unusually heavy? There were some with lead bases I assume for less microphonics

Things are starting to get a bit crowded in the ol' Woo Audio WA5-LE...

My adapters finally arrived, and seem to be working just fine. Tubes are Zenith 6J5G. Looking forward to this new experiment!

I have adapters imminent, along with a quad of Brimar 6J5G’s. And a quad of GEC L63’s waiting. Looking forward to trying them in Envy, plus I can use both in my Crack.

Where are you finding your tubes? Ebay is getting a bit sparse.

They seem to be heavier than other tubes. Although I am not sure if it is because of lead base or just thick metal base.

Langrex still has pretty good stock.

Tube World $$$$ but they are as advertised !

GEC’s we’re from LANGREX and Brimars from a friend.

 

[ColSaulTigh]

Thanks! Looks like it's off to Langrex I go with what's left of my wallet...

Anybody ever deal with "Vintage Electronics"?

Yes. I have bought valves from them. Top money, but top valves.

I presume you mean the uk company?

 

[nwavesailor]

Nice!
‘Top $$$ top valves’ is how I’d describe Tube World too.

Interestingly, they had the best prices I had seen on the Cossor 807 tubes. Haven’t checked recently but they were cheaper than Billington’s “wholesale” price and of course much less than eBay.

I have never been disappointed with my experience with Langrex, I always received very nice tubes.
