We cleaned the controls with electrical contact cleaner, but that’s about all the work we’ve done. The tubes are all original and branded for Fisher, including all of the Telefunken smooth plate 12AX7 tubes! It’s playing great and has been tested with the auxiliary and phono inputs. No issues were found! Please keep in mind that the tubes are untested and I cannot guarantee their condition. Also, a cabinet and plastic feet are not included. The bottom line is this… You’ll receive your item on time and in perfect condition regardless of how big, heavy, or delicate your item may be!

Welcome to our listing and thanks for visiting. After viewing this item, please check our other listings. Here are three type 2A3 radio or electronics tubes. Please view the photographs as we are not experts in tubes. There are three tubes; each one is a type 2A3. One is inside a box. The box and the tube are marked “Sylvania”. The tube is marked “2A3″ on the glass. Each of the other two tubes are marked “RCA”, and marked “2A3″ on the glass. These two tubes do not have boxes. We used a Hickok model 1575 tube tester and we tested the tubes. The Sylvania tube and one of the Rca tubes tested very good. The other Rca tube tested good. Even though the Sylvania tube is in its original box, we are not certain it is an unused tube. We hope that the photos will help those who are interested. We will do our best to answer any questions. Have a nice day. We hope that we have described our items to complete satisfaction. We are not on-line everyday though, so please be patient for the reply. This is to cover costs of boxes and packing material. We do not make any profit from this.
All our tubes have been tested for. GAS SHORTS TRANSCONDUCTANCE & EMISSIONS. These tubes have been tested – and are considered NOS ; they meet or exceed the published data set for GM. NOS tubes fall within the Gm characteristic range of an average tube, as published in the RCA RECEIVING TUBE MANUAL, which states Individual tubes, like any manufactured product, may have characteristics that range above or below the values given. Test Results are ALWAYS available upon request (if not photographed). Send me a message! I might have what you need! Tubes will be packaged in white boxes – if the original boxes are not photographed in the listing or stated as “with original box” they are not included. 90 % of our tubes are Tv7 tested, our tv7 is Calibrated and our go to tester. The tv7 tester has been around a long time and is a trusted tester for military, who had high standards for reliable tubes that would not fail in critical conditions. Military standards were tubes needed to meet 60/65% which they established as (minimum value). There isn’t a “specific” indicator or result or data set anywhere that universally designates a vacuum tube as “new old stock” when using a tester nor for what test result is given. The best way is to calculate the GM – and check the data sheet for each tube – a “nos”tube should typically measure between the average and maximum micromhos(GM). A common misconception of tube testing is that every unused tube, new or vintage, should test at 100% of the meter scale of the tester. A tube was considered acceptable/new/ passed standards if it tested between the specified minimum and maximum on a tube data sheet or the minimum value specified on the tester (tv7 is minimum is 65%). Tubes do not give the same reading across testsrs – even the same model tester will give a different reading sometimes. If you don’t like the sound of a tube, so long as it is still in the same condition as arrived message me. I DO NOT OFFER A TUBE ROLLING SERVICE, vintage audio tubes typically require a burn in period, that’s where the tube sounds the best. Please see my notes on noise tests below. We have a few different testers available to ensure the quality of the tube (as some tubes can not be tested on the tv7). Tv7 testing is tedious and I spend hours testing tubes and double testing tubes – if you notice a mistake(like a picture doesn’t match the title) please be gracious and let me know. UNLESS PHOTOGRAPHED WITH THE ORIGINAL BOX- tube will come in repackaged white boxes- 50-90 year old cardboard packaging doesn’t hold together well, not in my hands anyways. We have over the last 20 years amassed a huge collection of vintage amps/ parts / tubes and have decided to downsize that collection. Every tube has been marked for tracking and security purposes – these marks wipe off easily and without the mark no return will be accepted. Sound quality is tremendously SUBJECTIVE. Tube tester NOISE TEST. This is a very marginal test, only for special checking. This test needs sound amplification; hearing / listening to noise with headphones would indicate a real disaster inside a tube (THE shorts test WOULD already BE evidence OF THIS). There is nothing wrong with performing that noise test however. That test is not going to tell you whether the tube will be silent in your SET (single ended triode) amp or in anything else. Ultimately, the best way of testing a tube for microphonics is in an actual chassis or amplifier similar to one in which it is intended to be used. Since amps have a wide variety of circuit designs and tube placement, this test is most effective in YOUR AMP or one that is almost identical. Hence, most people advertising tubes as tested for Noise or Microphonics are probably NOT testing them in any meaningful way FOR YOU OR YOUR AMP. “Noise” and “Microphonics” are often buzzwords for other issues. There is a small percentage of tubes that have a problem with noise but far less than most people think. In properly designed circuits objectionable “tube noise” is seldom found. In other words, it is a rare tube that will be noisy when used in most circuits. Always check the data sheet of the tube you plan to use. PLEASE message me BEFORE you open a return. PLEASE NOTE: Tube silkscreen (lettering on the tubes) is VERY fragile. It can be wiped off and destroyed VERY easily.

Scott Amplifier / Power Supply Chassis. Here is a description that I found on the internet that appears to match this item. It may be a late Philharmonic (or Phantom Deluxe) Amp/Power Supply Chassis. It is uncommon in respect to the finish on the power transformer and the plug layout for the speaker connections. I have been told that chrome was in high demand immediately preceding WWII and in the later production years, the PTs were black in some models. If you look at the contours of the power transformer, you will see that it matches the more typical chrome counterparts. The interconnect sockets are rectangular instead of round and accept Jones plugs. This chassis is very similar to a Laureate but with the layout and tube compliment of a Philharmonic(or Phantom Deluxe). This chassis is set up for 5U4G rectifiers and a quad of 6L6G output tubes. Tubes are included what you see is what you get. This particular amplifier appears to have been restored in recent years as it has a new power cord, new electrolytic caps on the bottom of the chassis with the (top) originals left in place (one has a broken phenolic mounting wafer) and a few new capacitors. The underside of the chassis is clean and the wiring looks very nice. The top of the chassis is poor to fair in my opinion, there is moderate pitting on the Chrome chassis, the filter chokes and the cover of the driver transformer look pretty good, please look at the pictures and judge for yourself. The person who we got the amplifier from left the radio chassis and case behind and when he went back for these items per my request, they were long gone. The tubes appear to be as follows. 2 each 5U4GB rectifiers and 4 each 6L6G (or equivalent) output tubes. I suspect this item is probably functional but I have no way to test it. I will package this item carefully in a sturdy box to insure that it arrives in the same physical condition as seen in the pictures. I will remove the 6 tubes and package them in another box and box them with the amplifier. This amplifier / power supply assembly is a fine example of American made high quality radio equipment and was hand built with the state of the art technology of its time and the finest American made parts that were available. The pictures form part of the description.
