Bad idea...

I purchased six of these from Upscale. Five of the six were too noisy even though they were graded A for noise. One was so microphonic (also graded A) that it would go off when speaking. Upscale would not respond to any of my requests for replacement or refund. I have filed a dispute with Visa which Upscale is fighting.

I ended up with Telefunken branded heavily burned in and tested JJs which sound much better, are very quiet and so far seem to be reliable. Purchased from Tube Depot.
