    Just know... I'm trying really hard not to buy these from you >.>.... I have an RCA Grey Glass 6sn7 that I keep around just to say I've heard them and I have a TungSol 12sn7 for the same reasons [for another amp]

    That Ken Rad though... I don't have one of those yet <.< and here you are tempting me so

    If it helps you resist, I forgot to mention that it has a crack in base and is microphonic. Should probably adjust price and note that.

    It really doesn't... the RCA Grey Glass I have is SUPER microphonic and is cock eye'd :/

    A little tinFoil Shield will silence her up, but alas I must resist and put that cash into my sock drawer for upgrades!

    Are you OK to ship to the UK, @Luckbad? Tempted by all four pairs.

    If you want all four pairs I'll ship them to you. Could take a day or so to get adequate packaging ready to go because I'm tired and need to go to bed.

    No hurry mate :) I should ask... No horrible microphony on these? I've had some real 6sn7 stinkers before.

    Ken-Rad is the only one I noticed microphonics with.

    One of the tubes from pair #1 and #3 would get intermittently scratchy on me depending on where it was in the S7. DeOxit and some power on time seemed to take care of it.

    Cool, well @Mshenay has first dibs I think but if he doesn't take 'em then I will please. Shipping shouldn't be too bad, I've bought plenty of tubes from the US before.

    I've PM'd @Luckbad to say I'm pulling a dick move and no longer able to take these. Apologies for the time waste.
