zuzu Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 It's not easy to find this many 6DJ8's all the same lot number. I bought them a few weeks ago from a reputable tube dealer.They are represented to me as all tested good and are new. The relative triode numbers marked on the boxes are one at 80 one at 95/100 and 8 at 85 to 90. I don't know squat about tubes, but I'm told that tubes with these relative triod readings within a range of 10 are matched. 8 of the 10 are within 5. These tubes sell in the $ 20 to $40 range in quantities of 1 or 2. Anyone interested before I put them on e-bay. Make an offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Blacksmith Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 A few years ago I bought 21 JAN (green printing) 6dj8 tubes on ebay for about $25. I had them in the system for a little while but I replaced them with the 6922 russian tubes that came with the amp, I think the Russian tubes (old Svetlanna) sound better. If you find a place to sell them in lots of 2 for $20, let me know! I have a few to sell myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest " " Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I did a check to see if these subsitute for anything that i use....they don't...but here is the list in case anyone can use the info. 6dj8 6922 ecc88 7308 6n11 6h23 pcc88 * 7dj8 * * these can be used in place of a 6922 family tube, but you can not use a 6922 family tube in place of a 7dj8 or pcc88. the difference is the heater filiment in a 7dj8/pcc88 that will work in a 7 or 6 volt circut vs the 6922 family which will only work in a 6 volt circut.

zuzu Posted April 3, 2007 Author Share Posted April 3, 2007 Thanks guys. Cal are you tubes new and tested good? Are any the same lot number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuzu Posted April 3, 2007 Author Share Posted April 3, 2007 I looked at my records and these tubes were tested by the seller on a hickok 118b military tube tester for shorts, leakage m/u and gas. Mind you I don't have the tester and if I did would need help to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
