In Reply to: RE: 12AX7 Suggestions ? posted by Sondek on August 13, 2014 at 14:16:04
Upscale has 'em for $160 each now IIRC. That's more than double what I paid for them 2-3 years ago. They sound very good in my old CJ pv10's phono section, and would fit what the OP is looking for.
I also bought some of the Genelex gold pin 12AX7 reissues based on Mike Samra's rec. and am currently enjoying them in my Jolida cdp. NOS Mazda chrome plate 12AX7's are also a nice tube in my phono stage, but like the Mullards have doubled in price at Upscale from only a couple years ago.
Man, hope currently produced tubes are good and will be around for a while. NOS prices are getting past my pain threshold.

Shane,
Can you match me up a super quiet/matched (GLs) pair? I'll contact you by e-mail with a few days?

Well if you read "Joes tube lore" you will see that Joe thinks ALL 12ax7s suck and recommends users try 5751 instead. May be what you are looking for (I love 5751s) but by all means contact "Shane" if you are looking for new production.
