Re: How many NOS tubes still exist?

You are correct; it is getting to the point where a new term needs to be coined for NOS from the "golden age"-- 1930-1970s era. My mindset is such that I laugh when I see 1980s Tungsram 12AX7s, 1980s East German EL34s and others refered to as NOS... I think the original post specified 1970s vintage. Also all tubes slowly lose vacuum, so perhaps this is another debatable point. Chris
