Vacuum Tubes
The first electronic amplification of sound was done with Vacuum Tubes. We have pre-amp, power and rectifier vacuum tubes among other types in New Old Stock from the golden era of American & European manufacturing as well as current production tubes from today.
A sonically faithful reproduction of the original tubes with a robust construction encased in a thick glass envelope. The JJ KT66 delivers a powerful 25 Watts with plenty of headroom. This tube has a tone that is warm, thick, and straightforward. With a more balanced sound than the 6L6GC, the JJ KT66 is an excellent choice for a full bodied tone.
Starting at $42.95
Miniature double triode in the 9-pin miniature construction. Section #1 is intended for use as a vertical deflection oscillator having medium mu and section #2 is intended for use as a vertical deflection amplifier with lo mu.
$3.90
Miniature, filamentary, sharp-cutoff pentode intended for radio frequency or intermediate frequency amplifier use in battery-operated receivers.
$6.90
Heater-cathode type diode designed for use as a half-wave rectifier in ac/dc receivers. A heater tap is provided to permit operation with a panel lamp.
$23.90
Sharp cut-off general purpose amplifier. With the exception of heater and capacitance ratings, the electrical characteristics are similar to those of the 6C6.
$6.90
Superior power beam tetrode, engineered for demanding high fidelity, reliability and overall warmth. Traditional brown base.
Starting at $25.95
The JJ Electronic EL844 is a variation on the classic tube which reduces the overall headroom by 25%. With the reduced power, hitting that rich distortion that the EL84 is notorious for is more manageable. This tube will hit full saturated power tube sounds without having to crank the amps volume as high which makes them a great choice for recording as well as home / bedroom use.
Starting at $13.95
Miniature, high mu triode, double diode intended for application in color and monochrome television receivers. Separate cathode connections for each section and controlled heater warm-up time to insure dependable operation in series string receivers
$8.95
Electro-Harmonix 6CA7 Vacuum Tube Big bottle beam-tetrode version of EL34. Perfect EL34 replacement for Musicman amplifiers.
Starting at $24.85
Genalex Gold Lion 6V6GT / CV511 beam-power tube. Made in Russia.
Starting at $33.95
Heater-cathode type power rectifier in the miniature construction. Its low voltage drop and small size adapt it to use with vibrator-type inverters in automobile receivers.
$7.90
High-vacuum, heater-cathode type of tube designed to indicate visually the effect of change in the controlling voltage. Essentially a voltage indicator and as such is particularly useful to facilitate exact tuning of a radio receiver.
$33.60
High-mu twin triode designed for use in resistance-coupled circuits as a voltage amplifier or phase inverter. Except for heater characteristics and ratings, the 12SL7GT is identical to the 6SL7GT.

Miniature diode sharp-cutoff pentode designed for use as a combined detector, audio-frequency amplifier, and automatic-volume-control tube in compact, battery-operated receivers.
$6.90
Genalex Gold Lion U77 / GZ34 full-wave rectifier tube. Made in Russia.
$42.95
Tube having high efficiency and high power sensitivity for use in mobile and stationary equipment. It is rated as an af power amplifier and modulator, a linear rf power amplifier, and a Class C rf power amplifier and oscillator.
$44.90
Superior high-power Octal Beam Tetrode, suitable for any amp using 6550 or KT88. Designed to hold up in even the most punishing environment of high powered bass amps, such as Ampeg SVT. With 42 watts of plate dissipation in tetrode operation and 44 watts in triode, power is improved even over desirable vintage types.
Starting at $44.50
High-mu twin triode designed primarily for use as an AF voltage amplifier. Featuring a special shielding arrangement to reduce hum, the tube is well suited for low-level audio amplifier service.
$19.90
Beam power pentode primarily designed for use as the horizontal-deflection amplifier in television receivers.
$11.90
Out of Stock
Beam pentode primarily designed for use in the audio frequency power output stage of radio receivers. Features include high power sensitivity and high efficiency at relatively low plate and screen voltages.
$8.90
Pentode for use as RF, IF, or video amplifying valve or mixing valve in television receivers.

Genalex Gold Lion ECC81/B739 (12AT7) dual triode preamp tube with gold pins. Made in Russia. Original Genalex Gold Lion ECC81/B739 tubes are considered the best 12AT7 types ever made. They are also among the rarest types available. They exhibit a large detailed soundstage that is characterized by an expressive midrange, deep tight bass, and a smooth extended high end. The reissue Genalex Gold Lion ECC81/B739 recreates the sound signature of the original. This tube features balanced sections and gold plated pins.
$44.95
Miniature, medium-mu twin triode designed primarily for use as a vertical-deflection amplifier in television receivers. The two sections may be employed in parallel, or as a combined vertical-deflection amplifier and vertical oscillator.
