What was so hard about that?

How cool! Can you fit "Western Electric 300B" on the tube while you're at it?

 

[Ripper2860]

Yuck. I'm not even gonna Validate that with a response.

Ooops.

I see what you did there, but the fact that you hate it adds even more credibility to its awesomeness.

Not me, but I'm sure Bangy will fill your request

I wasn't the Validictorian in my class for nothing....

(Ok, I'll stop )

 

[Ripper2860]

Well, maybe this.

 

[bcowen]

Well, maybe this.

LOL!!! That was pretty good....for you.

You guys are on a roll!

My wife ordered a Vali 2 for my birthday at the end of September today. There's a three-to-five-week delay. I'm anxious to see which version I get and to listen to how it sounds. I'll check back in.

I predict you will love either version. I have oodles of tubes for the single+ Vali 2, so I am in good shape with mine.

 

[HWB3]

I'm looking forward to it, my friend.

That's a hemostat? I thought it was a roach clip.

Making a note if it now...

Triple use.

Wait until you see surgeons use them to stem venous blood flow. It will blow your mind.

Best watched from the upper gallery of the operating theater, with a fat spliff, and a nice hemostat.

So far I like all the tubes in the Vali 2++.

WE 396a used for $30 (60s), Sylvania 5670 NIB for $13 (triple mica), Tung Sol 2c51 NIB for $60/pair (1958), 6n3p-E NIB - $9 pair (and NOS they claim - 1977, otk 2) and the stock 6n3p.

What do you guys think of the Command RCA 5670? Is Command RCA really a great tube, or hype?

It's amazing how well these little tubes and this tiny amplifier drive these DCA planar headphones far better than FV -- which shrivels up.

Got 60's 63',66' etched on Amperex 6dj8/ecc88 Holland (grey plates/ halo getters?) Tubes. 2 mint for $90. I know nothing about buying tubes.Could someone give any thoughts on these. I searched the threads but most of the conversations were about the Amperex 6922. Thank you
