RE: Are these genuine Siemens EL34s?

I guess it depends on what one considers a "Siemens" EL34 to really be. My personal experience is with RFT EL34s that were labeled as Siemens. The EL 34s in the auction you linked look to me to be either late Tesla series or early JJ's from the 1990s. The clues are the domed top and the welded plates. RFT EL34s always used a narrow diameter, flat topped dimpled envelope and crimped plates...at least the ones I've had my hands on.
