TubeMuseum, eBay trading name, tubemuseumusa. This tube seller is one of the worst I have seen. The company's adds are all dresses up with bullsh!t to describe mostly rubbish. Some years ago they where caught out taking standard low performance tubes, then dipping the pins in gold to resell them as high performance gold pin valves. There is an example of there bull sh!t. These siemens tubes are worth about $200-$400. Someone paid US $1,498.00 for this junk. Mint Genuine in box Telefunken ECC802S go for about US$650. They seem to pray on peoples ignorance to sell there hyped up sh!t. Keep a million miles away from this mob.
