NOS Amperex 211 vacuum tube

Hello: 

I have a rare quad set ofNOS Amperex 211 Vacuum tubes. Bonafide, tested, In fact two quad sets, but I am using two tubes in my Air Tight 211 monoblocs. I've had these tubes for years. Thinking about downsizing. I think the Amperex sound better than almost anything, and I have tried almost every 211 tube out there. Does anyone have an idea of what they are worth today?

Jond: I think that you are right, but I also have a quad set of NOS GE, a pair of NOS RCA, Elrog 211 & 242, and a couple others. But I'm inclined to hoard what I have and let someone have a nice surprise someday when I am finally gone. The Amperex probably sound the best of the bunch.

I'm in a similar boat, I've got a large tube selection of hard to find/rare 12AU7 and 6DJ8 families. I hate to get rid of them, but it's probably the better part of an Aurender streamer in value

I’m in the market for a quad of NOS 211 for my airtight 3211. What are you thinking you’d like to do with them?  Thank you!

Love that you are an Air Tight fan. I have their older 211 mono blocks, as well their 300B anniversary amp and the ATE 2001 pre amp.

Let me get you some info on the tubes and you can make me an offer. I am not a dealer, and don't need the $, but I have quite a few NOS tubes, no interested kids and  getting older. I'll try and send you some info via this website, but may need a direct email to send images/files/etc.

Best,

BP
