try this seller. He's very good trust worthy and all are as he says, I have bought many many tubes and with 1 exception all were great. The 1 exception just didn't mesh with my gear he took it back with no problem.

I have bought from the second ebay seller down here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-Matched-Pair-Sylvania-5751-12ax7-ECC83-Triple-Mica-Black-plates-tubes-/201268773393
and can say that he is an absolutely stand up seller. Highly recommended (sorry so late in responding.
I have a pair (of sylvania gold label 5751 black plates with literally 10 hours (tops) on them)) that I am in deep contemplation about selling. Please let me think about it, and I will let you know.
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."![:\](https://forum.polkaudio.com/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

Yesterday I received a Sylvania 5751 3 mica blackplate from a guy on ebay.he said that he had used it in a headphone amp for about 300 hours. the tube had come from Brent Jesse in the original military contract box. he was asking $65.00 + shipping and he took my offer of$50.00.it is a very nice tube that sounds perfect for the Anthem Amp1.thanks to everyone for the help and suggestions.....WCWRogue Audio stereo 100 tube amplifier - Lector Zoe preamplifier with 6H30 pi's
