In Reply to: A pair of 12ax7s that were supposed to be the same, but are slightly different; can I use them in my amp? posted by hartwerger on February 23, 2007 at 13:50:52:
... but I know it bugs me a bit, too, when they aren't identical as to construction. Many sellers would not have noticed (or even known about) the differences you mentioned.My joke based on my recent ebay tube buying experiences: What do you call two RCA 5963 bp's with two top micas and square getters on a post with a cross bar, two RCA 5963 gp's with single micas and square getters at 45's off the top mica, and a GE five-star 12au7a?
Answer: A sleeve of matched NOS, NIB Raytheon triple mica 5814aw's! ; )
(In the interest of balance, there are some good deals and many good sellers there but I've had sort of an 'iffy' streak, lately. Seems I never know what I'm going to get anymore.)
