Part 1) not tubes

Item

Description



Tube Sockets. B4/B5 Gold.
Order number for 1x 50pcs
398-501-68

These are boxes of 50pcs. Perfect quality sockets. Ceramic disc, gold plated. This is surplus form one of our customers, who stopped with his company, but these sockets are the same as current new production. This is clean and 100% good material. Appr. 700 pcs on stock. Shiny like new.

price: 35 Euro for the box of 50pcs. GOLD PLATED!

On Ebay you can see some Chinese, doing direct sales, and want 13 Euro for 10pcs, or 7 Euro for 4pcs, and these are NONE-GOLD plated. These we sell here, are gold plated, cost only less than a Euro, but you need to buy a full box of 50pcs.

Smaller quantity, at normal prices, from the price list.

 


Part2) NOS TUBES AVVT
I am fully selling off my AVVT stock. Some I kept ever since 1999 as collector items, some for the memories, and some as a reference, because at that time we initiated many ideas, which later were realized at Emissionlabs. It is a strange feeling selling the first 2A3 mesh tube we ever made as the first company. The first 2A3 we ever build at all, I still have it. At that time, there was only a Chinese 2A3, and enough NOS for everybody. What days that were! Today I need to more space here, and I have decided to sell off this collection. Some are listed without pictures, I had not so much time. If you want pictures of some, please just let me know. AVVT NOS tubes are very rare now. IT WILL NOT COME AGAIN LIKE THIS.

Description


AVVT 8B-BLU

8B was a wonderful and versatile tube for experienced users. (Datasheet here) and it has a sweet and silky sound.

Also used as driver in the magnificent VAIC REFERENCE, the largest VAIC amplifier ever build.

You can replace a 45 with those tubes, but you need to make sure you have 5 Volt for the heater, and adjust the bias 11 Watt, and it will be close to 11 Watt itself. No guarantee on this of course. Keep it is mind as a possible option, for in case adapting the bias and heater voltage is not a secret to you.

I think these also work in the Lampizator. Please contact me, if you have this is mind, I will clarify this for you in that case.

AV8B-BLU

This "blu" was the word Mr. Vaic used for this special glass, so I'll leave that in. Extremely rare Blue glass version.

The best description for 8B is: As used in the VAIC REFERENCE amplifiers.

Beautiful, exclusive tubes. Less than 10 pairs were made ever with blue glass. If you want something rare and special, this is really it.

This blue glass, has a transparent gold plating, giving a gold-purple reflection in daylight. Same as sunglasses with metal coating, and they have this colored mirror effect, but the coating is much thinner here, in order to still look inside. The look-through color of these tubes is dark blue.

They look much nicer as on the pictures. They look like objects of glass art, and I think that is what they are indeed. The anodes at the inside are white mirrored.

The official datasheet here for the AV8.

New, unused tubes. Top Quality NOS from the best period.

850 Euro for the pair. 3 Pairs Available

AV8B.

AVVT 8B

Same as above, but normal C37 glass.

After being able to serve VAIC Reference users with this tube type, this is the LAST NOS PAIR I have available, ever since 1998. When these are gone, the game is over, there is no way to get any NOS any more.

 

Part3) AVVT Overhauled tubes

This was a one-time program from 2021. When these are sold, there will be no more. We had a box of AVVT tubes, with end of life, collected over the years, . The overhaul was done at the EML factory, we are probably the only company able to do this.

Please note this: With tube overhaul, people sometimes think we have a way, to quickly slide in new heaters, and it works again. But actually over haualing lding a tube is more work as building a new one. Extra time is needed for taking the old tube apart, and clean and repair all pieces one by one. The anode system at the inside is original AVVT, as well as the old sockets, which gets new pins if needed. The only thing new in the tubes is the filaments and the grid.

The only difference you do see, is we use darker glowing EML filaments, vs the bright orange glowing AVVT filaments.

  • Tube hum: Lower as with AVVT, due to much better filaments of EML
  • Glass shape: We use the AVVT ST glass shape.
  • Guarantee: Three months
  • Mechanical strength: Same high quality as EML. We replace also the soft AVVT side bars, by hard metal, same as EML. Risk on shipment damage is low as can be.
PRICING: See the JACMUSIC Price List, under AVVT

 

High Resolution

This is a pair of overhauled AVVT 2A3-S, sold to Indonesia. Picture with kind permission of Brian Fu.
One overhauled Pair of AVVT 302B. Use it like 300B-XLS.

The sockets and the whole inside system is taken from the original AVVT tubes, apart from the filaments and the grid, which are replaced by new. So these have full emission again, and no grid errors.

New filament has 5V / 1.7 Ampere. Make sure the amplifier can supply 1.7Amp

Tubes are tested at 400V 95mA, same as done for EML 300B-XLS. We recommended to use it as according to the datasheet of EML 300B-XLS. The tube is almost the same, just the 302B uses more heater current.

Beautifully matched pair, with the heavy metal look of the AVVT.

A detailed, printed test report comes with the tubes.

Guarantee: Three months on manufacturing failures.

Telefunken RE604

Pic1 - Pic2 - Pic3 -Pic4

Price: Please inquire

This is one if the strangest item I have ever had. This is a TELEFUNKEN RE604, but it has a failure. The heater of this tube is not Barium Coated. This coating is still inside the Barium "pill", the part you can see in the middle of the anode, and it is normally activated by inductive heating. With this tube this was not done! This gets visible optically, because the tube burns bright orange, much brighter than normal. At the same time, the heater current is much lower than normal. So you will understand how unlogical this is.

The lower current is caused by the higher wire temperature, and the wire gets hotter because it is now metallic instead of white-grey. So heat radiation is significantly less, because in vacuum this depends extremely on the color of the surface. And shiny metal reflects not only heat, it also prevents it's own radiation of heat.

When you know how to activate a Barium pill, or want to try it, here is your chance. Because I do not know it. But I would recommend you to leave this "as is". Such a tube, I think there is only one on the world, preserved with a "none activated yet" Barium pill. A 90 years old Telefunken, and even the RE604. If you want a unique show item, this is it. I removed the socket nicely and clean, no damage or burn spots. What you see is just resin from de-soldering. The socket is perfect condition. Because initially it looked to me like a loose anode wire. Of course I never expected something like this. It would be easy to put the socket back on.
I really don't have the time to sell small packages on Ebay, this is perfect material, when you have an EBAY shop.

Looking for 6SN7 NOS? You can try with 7N7 instead! This tube is for sale in beautiful NOS quality. Only thing the socket is LOCTAL. 6SN7 and 7N7 are electrically INDENTICAL. datasheets are electrically identical, and I see even the same piece parts in there. Loctal sockets look and cost the same as octal sockets. So think out of the box, and buy a five pack 7N7 fore what you pay for one 6SN7. The socket is almost wired the same. The tube is rotated inside the bulk for one pin position and two pins are exchanged. So not a big difference. The amplifier chassis needs not be significantly changed when you modify your amp for 7N7.

Look in the price list for order Number: 114-165-48

We have also Gold Pin socket adapters from 7N7 to 6SN7.
