Re: Maximatcher.

Mewp, is that you?

David Hogge, who was our local tube dealer in Davie, had one and tested a bunch of my power tubes for me, on it. I can't say how well it's held up, as he moved a few years back, but it tests at 400v, where most testers only do 250v max. It seemed to be more accurate than most too, giving readings in current (mA?) draw as well as transconductance.

At $500, they aren't cheap and they only test a half a dozen (or so)tube types and with the extra adapters, you get a few more. This might be sufficient for most audio applications, but it is limited to a degree.
