ST-70 owners, go to ebay and check out the NOS/NIB 7199 tubes. They've got some good prices there.

I just bought 4 NOS/NIB RCA black plates for $100US from a guy in Switzerland. That's a killer deal.

He's also selling Sylvania. I have nothing but great things to say about Sylvania. They trash my JAN/Philips. No joke. Bass is MUCH better, fuller and more bloom. Mids is so sweet and smooth and the highs sound awesome. I've had my Sylvania since the day I got the Dyna but never gave them much of a chance because I re-tubed the amp right away. That was a big mistake. I should've kept using the 7199.

Can't wait for the RCA to come in. They're suppose to be the best 7199 tube out there.

    Thanks for the info. I can't do it right now, but it's good to know they are still out there from time to time.

    I'm sure you'll like the RCA tubes. I'm happy with mine.
    Make it Funky! :)
