Brand New, Matched Pairs RARE MINT NOS NIB JUNE-1957 Brimar CV1985 6SL7GTY Tubes. Halo Getter and Brown Micanol Base. STC Footscray production. From British Military Stock. One of the most desirable 6SL7 type tubes. Except for the getter style, tubes are identical sonically and electrically to the Square getter types from 1953-1957. Getter style was changed from Square to Halo in Mid-1957. In these 1950s Micanol Base types, often tubes from the same date/batch can have slightly different shade of the base color. It is normal.

Tested and matched on Top of the Line Calibrated Hickok 580 Lab Grade Tester recently calibrated by late Chris Haedt. 65% = 1000 mmhos on this tester for 6SL7.

Matched Pair = $225.

Excellent linear audiophile quality tube	September 18, 2007
Reviewer: Sherlock from Seattle, WA United States

Early production 1950s Brimars are always a safe bet for me, regardless of tube type. This tube is outstanding, and should be considered if you are looking for a very linear tube, with clean detailed highs, and excellent bass. When I say the tube is linear, I meant that the frequency extension is all there, but no area is overemphasized. Those looking for more drama and bass slam might consider the Mullard ECC35. Those wanting more aggressive highs might consider Tung Sol black glass or Sylvania V-229s. This Brimar CV1985 is for those who seek a super smooth sound, with no emphasis in any one area. You will NOT be unhappy with these tubes. Also, they are hard to find. I rarely see NOS 50s Brimars.
