One of the places I work for used to have their own radio program. Yesterday I was going through some stuff and came across these old tubes.
I know nothing about tubes other than they sound great when it comes to amps and they have a nice glow. Any info would be great.

The list below starts at the top left.
-Sylvania 6CD6C
-RCA 6L6GC
-Sylvania 6SN7GTB
-Mullard 7189
-Sylvania 6BA6
-RCA 12AX7
-General Electric 6FH8

I recognize only the 6l6gc (power amp) and the 12axy (preamp). Those are common tubes in current production amps.

Can you post a closeup of that RCA 6l6gc?
Those are worth gold if in good condition. The metal 'flashing' spot on the glass will give a fair indication, assuming the tube is basically functional.

Too bad it's only one; that means you can only put it in a single ended class A amp.
OR you'd have to drop serious cash to get a second one and HOPE that it's matched to the one you already have.:rolleyes:

The RCA 12ax7 are very nice too if they are in good condition.
Warmer and punchier than anything produced today IMHO.:)

I don't know any of the rest. I don't think they are used commonly in modern tube amps, but maybe you can find a collector or radio-enthousiast that can do something with them.

I think some audiophile amplifiers use 6SN7s.

What a find! I'd go back and look in every nook and cranny for more!

The 7189 is a variant of the EL84 configuration, but with a higher plate voltage range. The 7189 operates in the 400V range, While EL84's operate in the 300V range. In most applications, you can use a 7189 in an EL84 circuit, but not the other way around.

There were more unboxed. I'll have to grab them next Monday.
