Philco 37-116X What's The Price Point?
#22

Hello, Gene: well, that's my point. It wasn't worth it to you. I also agree with Arran with respect to the seller. What I was unable to convey to you was that what it is worth to you is the bottom line.

FYI the 37-116 is a floating chassis that does not use screws to secure it to the cabinet. This is why you see some interesting mounts installed by the set's owner.

With respect to the 6B4G tubes, the last time I checked Bob Dobrush' website findatube.com the new 6B4Gs were selling for 35.00 new and 18.00 used. Bob is a good guy to go to for tubes.
