Description

Nice 70's vintage genuine British made Brimar CV4055 ( 6CH6 EL821) pentode amplifier tubes with adapters to use directly in place of EL84 tubes, an effective way to get British NOS quality without the expense of NOS EL84 tubes. 

All of the tubes are in the original British military boxes and are guaranteed. 

6CH6 is a output power pentode with ratings and characteristics very similar to EL84, but with a different pinout, the adapter is required to use in place of EL84.

The price is PER TUBE + 1 ADAPTER. Matched pairs are available if you order in multiples of 2.
This item is shipped from Britain, in North America or Asia please allow 2 to 3 weeks for delivery.

Rating 6CH6 CV4055 Brimar Tube with EL84 Adapter
  I bought this tube with some skepticism. The adapter pins appeared a bit flimsy and I had to be careful inserting them. The sweet, creamy, detailed sound that emerged exceeded my expectations. Initially, the tube sounded a bit bright and sometimes harsh. This tube does require a much longer warm up period than regular el84s, but once it is there is dead quiet. I will probably buy a few more of these tubes.

Rating Technician, tinkerer and music lover.
  Definitely a great economical way to get vintage Britsh tone without the high current prices of NOS EL84s. I was quite pleasantly surprised. Thanks to Ned and all.
