lucky me!

Realizing this is going to appeal more to the tube hi-fi guys over at AK, I still wanted to share here too. A neighbor who used to work for Martin Radio & TV Wholesale back in the 60's gifted me this NOS quad of Sylvania 6L6GC's the other day! Pretty cool, eh?

A few years ago I traded every last one of my 6L6 variants to a tube audio guy in exchange for a 630ts. Now all I have are some used metal ones but, hey, I gotta TV!

Nice find! Sylvania audio power tubes seem to last forever! I'd keep these in a drawer for the future. I have a small stock of Sylvania 6L6WGB, but not any of these guys.
