Sold - Mullard EF95 Vintage Valves - £3.99

On offer is a single new old stock Mullard EF95 valve. This is what The National Valve Museum has to say about the EF95...
The EF95 is a low noise RF voltage amplifying pentode, designed to operate at VHF. Mullard introduced the valve in 1952 as a direct equivalent to the American 6AK5.
The quoted noise factor at 180 MHz is 3.5.
See 6AK5 for more details. See also M8100 for the special quality version.
The thin glass tube envelope is 17 mm in diameter and excluding the B7G base pins measures 36 mm tall.

So why go for old tubes?
Old tubes were made so well that they last much longer than current production tubes. Preamp tubes have been known to last around 30 years, or around 20,000 hours. That's practically a lifetime for a tube amp.
In most cases, vintage tubes sound better than their modern counterparts. The quality in manufacture of these tubes has a large effect on the sound, particularly in preamp valves. You really have to try some vintage tubes instead of modern production ones to experience just how better they sound, they make your amp come to life. The more gain your amp uses the less noticeable this effect may be, as in some high gain amps, transistors or diodes are used to get more gain instead of tubes, so the tubes will be less important.
Get them while you can - since these tubes are obviously no longer being made, once they're gone they're gone - and prices are always going up.
Perfect for vintage valve guitar amplifiers and radio restoration. If you have any questions, just ask.

Sold - Mullard PCL86 Vintage Valves - £3.99

On offer is a single new old stock Mullard PCL86 valve. Priced at just £5 to clear. This is what The National Valve Museum has to say about the PCL86...

This PCL86 was made in the UK by Mullard and was designed for the audio stage of a television receiver and offered a quality output.
In 1961 Mullard developed a combination of an ECC83 triode and an EL84 output pentode in a single envelope and this was the ECL86. The PCL86 was the series heater chain version of that work.
The separate triode section would provide the first audio amplification, and the output pentode would drive the loudspeaker. The PCL86 as a single ended audio amplifier would have a cathode resistor of 125 Ohms and an anode load of 5,100 Ohms and under these conditions would produce an output power of 4.1 Watts at a distortion of 10%.
The thin glass tube envelope is 20 mm in diameter and, excluding the B9A base pins, is 70 mm tall.

For Sale - Mullard UC92 Vintage Valves - £3.99

On offer is a single new old stock Mullard UC92 valve. Priced at just £5 to clear. This is what The National Valve Museum has to say about the UC92...
The UC92 is a triode that is designed for oscillator or mixer use in AM/FM broadcast receivers. The UC92 is directly heated and for its intended use hum pick-up is not an issue. The anode cavity has a front to back dimension of less than 2 mm. The 8.5 mA anode rating was designed for low noise amplification at the expense of increased dissipation. The thin glass tube envelope is 18 mm in diameter, and excluding the B7G base pins is 45 mm tall.
