Default Re Valve amps

as demand increases, so does prices
I don't know if demand is increasing - and remember that a big slice of the
market is group gear - and in any case there are just a few 'rarities' like Syl
6SN7s, Amperex ECC83s and Mullard EL34s that are expensive, and those have
perfectly good cheap substitutes. People like Jim who spent their lives in
valve gear don't like selling at silly prices - goes against their principles.

I'd bet that when valve equipment becomes rare there will still be a
mountain of unused valves out there
Not as big as the pile of obsolete PCBs.......
LOL!
Mind, Max Bygraves at £6.50. I need to talk this through with my therapist.
