Got a line on NOS tubes


A guy I chat with in an unrelated industry has LOTS of tubes. His father owner a tv/radio/electronic repair shop in the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. He inherited all the stuff from his father when he passed away. Apparently he’s got approximately 3-4000 tubes. I am currently in the market for a tube amp. Now, if I get something like the PrimaLuna, I can use many different tubes.
What should I be asking for? What are some of the ‘golden, rare’ tubes?

If you're getting a primaluna amp you owe it to yourself to find some Amperex DD getter EL34s. It's the best EL34 I've ever heard, I personally like it more than NOS Genalex KT88s
