    Thanks Ben. I bought these NOS from Tubeworld last fall. Not a lot of hours on them and I think you will be happy with them.

    They look pretty interesting, can't wait to get them installed. Gonna try them in the input position of my octal based Aikido pre, I think they should pair well with the RCA 6SN7 that are in the output position.

    Paypal has been sent, thanks again.

    The Mazda, RCA CLear tops and Mullards are all very nice 12AU7s that are a huge step up from a lot of tubes. I think the RCAs are sweet and bested alot of other more expensive 12AU7s I have tried.

    Matter of fact I am keeping a pair to backup some AMperex 7316 d getters I have in my phono preamp.

    Come Friday what is not sold goes on ebay and will sell for more than being offered here and shipping will not be free.

    Greetings Tracy!

    My tubes arrived today safe and sound! Packed exceptionally well! It's so cold outside and the tubes sat on the porch for several hours. I am going to let these warm up for a day or so before rolling them into my preamp.

    Feedback is coming! Thanks so much!
    Carl

    Found mine sitting on the table when I got home today. Everything looks good, I'll hopefully be able to get them rolled in on Sunday.
