CV2492 Tubes and Happy (Belated) Fourth of July!

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Out of curiousity, I picked up a quad of these tubes off eBay.

I tested them at 6922 settings on my B&K 700 and they barely hover around the minimum mark (62). But if I test them as 6DJ8s they score great (100).

If the circuit design originally calls for 6DJ8 tubes, can I count on the 6DJ8 score as a guideline that they should work okay before I put them in?

I would like to give them a whirl in either my Counterpoint SA5 Pre or ARC 70 Amp.

P.S. Happy (Belated) Fourth of July to my American Inmates!
