RE: Joe's Tube Lore...is way off bae in a couple areas

Kevin,

If you would like to sell some of those PW's email me (microphonic may be OK). Wheezer if you haven't heard the PW's, Joe was right on target.
They are in a class by themselves in this family. I have the Siemen's CCA's and many other highly regarded 6922' and 7308's including D getter
versions. This would be a lame family if not for the PW (Joe had that part wrong). Joe also missed the boat on the 12AU7 family (not his fault, he never got to the good ones). He was right about all 12AX7's sounding out of focus (to different degrees) when compared to the 5751's.
The only 12AX7's (better focused than the others) I could recommend are the Raytheon BPSG and the RCA BPSG.
