I've got too many tubes sitting around here, so it's time to thin the herd.

Matched Quad of Ei 6CA7 - $200.00

Matched Quad of Ei 6CA7 - $200.00

The two quads above are close enough to be a matched octet, if you need them.


Quad of Ei 6CA7 - $175.00 (for those that don't need a matched quad)

Matched Quad of Ei EL34 - $150.00

3 Matched Ei EL34 - $75.00

Matched Pair of JJ EL34 (Blue Glass...way cool) - $50.00

Matched and Balanced Quad of Ei 12AT7 - $80.00

Matched Pair of Tung-Sol 12AX7 - $20.00

Pair of Groove Tubes 12AX7 - $15.00

Pair of Sovtek 12AX7WC - $15.00

Pair of EH 12AX7 - $15.00


For those that don't know the Ei factory has been closed for years and most Ei's are very hard to find now. Get'em here while you still can.



The prices above do not include shipping, which in most cases should be in the $6.00 range. If you want insurance, that's extra. However, I will not be responsible for squat if you don't take it.

I take PayPal from a bank account only, no credit cards...period.

I will also take a check, but only if I know you. No exceptions, sorry.

Finally, I reserve the right to sell to whomever I want or don't want.

If you have any questions, please ask and thanks for looking.

    Ok, Ted isn't taking any of the Ei EL34's as I don't have enough for his needs, so they are still available.

    In case someone doesn't know.....the 6CA7 is a direct replacement for the EL34 with no need to do anything except set the bias as you normally would.

    Just an excerpt from a pm F1 sent me.

    "Just looked at these again....not only are they matched they are balanced as well, which I missed. I also missed the fact that they are gold pins. Still the same price."

    First class guy here folks, as most already know. Tubes arrived today, overpacked to survive.

    Thanks again Jesse.

    Ditto that !

    Jesse, received the tubes, packed to take a beating from a gorilla.

    The 6CA7s perform as you said they would, kicking the SED Wing Cs butt.

    Thanks for the link in your PM, cool site.

    Jesse, the 6CA7s, Sylvania 5751 and mullard CV4003s are sounding great. Anything else you have in the way of tubes your not using that might be an upgrade to the 5751 or mullards ?

    Well, I do have some green label Sylvania 5751's, but I wouldn't sell them to my enemy. You should look for some yellow label Sylvania 5751's from the late '50's. They run about $100.00 each, none better, IMO.
