Mullard tube$ from Blackburn - your thoughts
#1

In searching for some tubes for my Fisher, I am a little puzzled about the cost of the older 6BQ5 tubes made in England, esp at the Blackburn plant. I wonder what is so special about them to drive such a high price, even for well used tubes. Can someone more Hi Fi savvy than myself enlighten me?
   
I can remember pulling a set of these out of an old VM "Hi Fi" record player and thinking they were bad since they looked all black and burned up - needless to say, they weren't the problem, and unfortunately are long gone, along with the record player by about 40 years Icon_problem . (and yes, I robbed the pic from Ebay)

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
