Any experience with EZ-80s, 5687s or Bendix 6900s?


I have an AMR CDP and it uses EZ-80s as rectifiers and 5687s in the output stage. I may have a problem with a rectifier tube and was thinking of replacing it (them). I know nothing about EZ-80s (or EZ-81s). The current rectifier is an NOS Philips. Does anyone here know what a Telefunken EZ-80 might sound like in this application or how it might compare to the Philips?

Also, I have heard that some people are using Bendix 6900s in place of the 5687 Tunsgarams. Same questions here if you have any input.

Thanks,

Frank

Hard for the B6900 to crap out. They run forever. Send them to me I will take them.
FM,

After hearing the story here I don't want the tubes even if they are perfect.

Let's see . repentence is in order I do believe.
