There are NO tubes being made that are as good as those RCA's which were sold in every drug and hardware in USA for two bucks. Nor will there ever be .
Can a new brand of power tube even duplicate what this pair of RCA's are putting out?
Hello,
Having a difficult time finding a brand of tubes to match the wonderful low end tone this old pair of el 84's produce. I actually pulled these old tubes out of a post ww2 era hammond organ, it was in my garage for 20 yrs.. I still cant get over the low end these old dusty RCA's are throwing out . I purchased two pairs of new tubes TAD EL84-STR and The JJ's. Both didn't even come close
Was surprised about the TAD, they were suppose to have significant low freq. but compared to the RCA hey were a disappointment
Any one have any insight on why this is, also any worthy brand suggestions to try?
