If you don't live near a dealer who can test tubes for you a tube tester is not a bad investment. That one looks interesting but a bit limited perhaps look into what else is out there?
Tube Tester Option

With all the money I "gamble" on audio, maybe I should just buy this and try it.

will this simple unit also test your tubes? https://www.ebay.com/itm/124523483585?hash=item1cfe2d91c1:g:6hYAAOSwKm9f~K3J I advise anyone having tube preamp, amp, tuner, phono to get a simple tube tester. that one looks nice, I want more variety of tube types |
@gndrbob, I wouldn't think Atmasphere would have tried this product as it's clearly for hobbyist use. I would think he has a legitimate Hickok or something commercial and substantial. I just need something to test my 9 pin preamp tubes. I have a ton of 12au7 variants that I want to sell as I no longer need them. I'd like to be able to make an accurate representation about their condition. And yes, I realize that absent something like TubeZilla at Upscale, nothing is guaranteed accurate and calibrated. |
