LK,

They do look like Raytheon made 5814. Square getter rings and the dark black plates look like the real thing.

Good tubes, if they are. One listen should tell the difference. Rich & powerful 12AU7-series. Much better tone than any plain-jane 12AU7 that I've ever heard.

BTW--my CBS-Hytrons have a slightly "smoked" glass appearance and red lettering. Superb tubes, especially in the phase splitter position of early Bassmans.
