Oh yeah, D vs. O-getter. The D getter is in the earlier construction of these tubes and is said to be superior. I have D-getters since my tubes are from the 1950s, so I can't speak to the difference. The same can be said of small O getters vs. large. I do have some experience here; large O getters are superior, perhaps they create a greater flash and a better vacuum. |
I have a pair of these: https://www.audiogon.com/listings/tubes-amperex-7308-usn-cep-pq-matched-pair-test-nos-made-in-usa-gold-pin-2014-02-15-accessories-92821-brea-ca, from 1962 and '63(still identical construction), that are just sitting in a drawer. You’re welcome to try them, no strings. Just sanitize and UPS them back, after listening/auditioning. PM me, if interested. |
