Question about russian tubes

Python · « **on:** 28 May 2009, 10:10 pm »

Well, hello everyone!

All know ussr/russian made tubes, such as 6P14P**, 6P3S-E, 6N*V-** tubes. Also i can say this about capacitors, K40/42, Teflon, SSG.

For example - on ebay i list 6F12P tube many times, but sell it once. On my webstore usually sell about 50 in mounth...

But now i need to encrease tubes assortment in my store, and want to know, what international tube fans think about other russian tubes. For example:
6P15P-**
6J*P
6N23P
and other, other, other.
Subminiature amplifer tubes 1j*** series?

Also, if in tubes order you received few "new tubes"?

And really interesting question for me: what tubes you want to see in sale, but can't, or really hard to find it?

Once again - sorry for my english, but i know, that it better, than your russian )

Thanks for your time, Oleg, www.ussr-tubes.com

Hi Oleg, this needs to be posted in the Industry Ads circle as you are/appear to be a tube vendor.

I am very interested in the 6J52P and 6J53P which are similar to revered tubes like the D3A & 7788. They aren't so easy to find until just recently. I got a handful of the 52Ps to try out, but haven't had a chance yet.

I like the 6N1P & 6N2P tubes as well as 5881's. The GM70 would be a nice add on as well. The Russian 6SN7's I have tried have a high failure rate as do the 6L6's.

One more thing- I have had good luck with Russian 6V6's.
