Vintage Tubes

Would someone be kind enough to let me know how I can test some vintage tubes that I have been given. I am new to using tubes and have a selection of vintage tubes but I have no way of knowing how effective they are.
Thank you. Douglas

Sorry to take this off topic, but where did you find Eva on vinyl?
Which album is it?

I purchase all of my vinyl from www.acousticsounds.com . The album is Songbird ansd is 180 gram vinyl. Hope this helps. Douglas

Thanks for the tip.
Hopefully they'll release Blues Alley on 180g someday.....

He's sold me tubes in the past and is very responsive and ships fast. He may be able to test your tubes for you...ask him and see.

Good luck.

You could check around locally for a TV and radio repair shop that still has tube testers...
