Some tubes from 60’s! Might be done tube hunting for now. Sylvania 6080 gold brand

Don’t need more tubes that sound more solid state and neutral so I think I’m done hunting on ebay.

When these borders open… Off to Japan to hunt tubes and visit a good buddy.

Sooo… Job Corps finally let me have my clothing allowance (supposed to be for work/interview clothes), so I had a bit of fun with it.

Don’t ask me why the preview is showing two pairs of pants, rather then the pants and the jacket.

It may sound strange, but i prefer sound of allo + linear power supply much more than m400, m400 sound flat, actually i sold it already, only after 4 days of use, and i’m so glad that it was sold.

Got some new fans for my case, and no this is not RGB, only fans with a single lighting.

Some more tubes. Feeling like I need to pay proper respect to all these tubes. I believe they are older than I am after all.

Those aren’t just any $1.50 a cap RCA caps, those are Cardas, and they block 99.99% of all stray negative ions that muddy your high end.

what type of Tubes are it?

It’s a nos GE 6as7g. I’ve read It’s suppose to sound similar if not the same to the RCA 6as7g. Liking it so far.
