I have a quad of Brimar 13D5 tubes for sale. These are a drop in replacement for 12AU7's. They are in very nice shape electrically and physically. The pins could use a slightscrubbing, but they are not bad. From left to right the production years are 1964, 1963, 1961, and 1962. They are all made in England and internally they are exactly the same. They have long grey plates and large halo getters. As you can see there is paint on the two right tubes. They came that way to me. Obviously it does not affect the sound at all. The tubes are spectacular from a tonal point of view. They are relatively warm and have great bass and mild highs. Not sharp sounding at all. If you want that get some Amperex 12AU7's. The midrange is very nice and rich too. The sound is similar to the Mullard sound.
I will sell these for $115.00 shipped to anywhere CONUS for the quad. If you only need a pair, I will split them up. Please let me know. Below are some pictures for you to view.

Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

One pair sold to Alan (starkiller). Thank you Alan. I have one more pair available. It's the pair on the right (the 1961 and 1962 tubes). I will sell these for $50.00 shipped anywhere CONUS.
