Nevermind,
I don't know if you followed the thread but from looking at pictures of the bottom of the circuit boards we figured out that the power tubes were not 6AQ5s but 6BQ5/EL-84s. It is amazing what you can learn from counting the socket pins and seeing which wires came out of the output transformers.
Vino Verde for everyone!!
Hi Thatch
Thanks for the tip.As you know i'm quiet new in Tubes,but i'm a fast learner you'll see..
Just for the record,my friend have 6AQ5s from Philips and from Valvo(i think?!)
at 17,00€ each.They are new old stock from the 50s.
By the way,where did you learn that words in Portuguese?
Maybe someday i'll send you a botlle...
Have fun,don't drink too much and drive safe.
Godspeed
Luis
My career was in selling wine. I have been drinking Vino Verde for 25 years. It is one of those wines to drink young and celebrate the harvest or maybe usher in the new spring season. We also get Nouveau Beajolais and sometimes I even see May Wine from Germany.
I make a good Pailla too. Vino Verde is a good wine with this dish.
Valvo might have been owned by Phillips. I don't see a lot of Valvo tubes in Texas but I do have some. I like the logo and some of the tubes are beautiful with the shiny perferated screens like Amperex EF-86. Telefunken EF-86s are ugly to look at but a joy to listen to.
Nice set of Tubes.
And now a little advise not in Tubes but,in wine(offcourse) try the vino verde with shrimps or lobster....it's like earing music with NOS telefunken...
