What-watt Posted February 27 Author Posted February 27 Well, in that case, what will be a good EL84, an affordable one? that don't brake the bank? some say EL84 sound as good as 2a3, but except for my old pc200 prelude from HK, best mono bloc, i ever have, but sadly sold all my 9 amplifier, my 7 backup and my 2 working one! and could not ever it the last 2 decade find another decent pair at a fair price...

82 Cornwalls Posted February 28 Posted February 28 @What-watt I like 6P14P-EV (Soviet era) available from Ukraine sellers on the 'bay at very good prices. Quote
What-watt Posted March 6 Author Posted March 6 Good evening, i have found those on Ali https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32942059270.html not sure, if it's really a 6v6, but it's vintage for sure, but not the most accurate production! regards Quote

Is there a reason to buy Russian 6P6S tubes from China (real or fake) instead of European vendors? I got a matched quad of 6P6S tubes for my 6V6 amplifier from a vendor that had US stock, but I would rather buy from Europe than China. Quote
What-watt Posted March 7 Author Posted March 7 So 6p6s, is a 6v6, good to know, also the 5871 tube also 6v6 (military version), i have now have more option! Quote
