So I have one of those cheesy little 6j1 preamps that I use in my digital chain. I have been running some GE JAN 5654's which sound lots better than the stock Chinese tubes.
Anyway, I decided to order a set of what are supposedly NOS Tung Sol 6AK5's from, supposedly, 1945. These would be the oldest tubes I have ever personally owned if true. Also, the claim is that they are in original packaging. Unopened for 73 years. And they aren't very spendy for what they purport to be.
So I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with any or all of these factors. Thanks in advance!
