Time to ROLL!!!
« on: January 18, 2011, 10:51:49 AM »
Hey guys,
My new/old little tube amp takes the tubes sizes listed below, anybody got any of these sizes matched and want to sell them, give me a shout here or: eclein@aol.com
The current brand in the big slots....LOL...are "JJ" Brand tubes and I have the stock tubes as well so I'm looking for Telefunkens, Sovotnek(sp)...anything that you think might sound good. I figure if your not currently using it, and the mojo isn't there between your gear and the tubes maybe you need to clean out your supply....Thanks!!!  Ed :thumb:

Oh you poor, poor fool.

Welcome to the tube rolling madness, :drool:

Was looking for an appropriate thread to ask this and I think this might be it.

How many sets of power tubes or preamp tubes do you keep on hand for your tube rolling pleasure or just to have spares?

I think I might have gone overboard with power tube sets. I saw a couple of deals throughout the year and bought stuff. I didn't realize how many sets I bought till I was going through my audio gear. I've got 5 sets of power tubes for my Jolida. 1 NOS quad of 6550s, 1 quad of Penta KT-88SC solid black plates and 2 matched quads of KT-120s and 1 matched quad of cryoed KT-120s.

Thanks in advance.

eclein, I don't have any tubes for you, but this page will get your juices flowing...

One spare tube of each type is enough for me, sleepy.
