Item name : TUBE SOCKET SAVER BROWN AMPHENOL
Quantity in current lot: 4 items
Item type: socket saver for 8 pin octal tubes
Item condition: NEW, never used, hand-crafted, no Chinese parts used, only NOS soviet parts used.
Ideal for tubes: 6L6, 6V6, 6SN7, EL34
Brand new tubes 4Ts14S used as base of saver. The special and very rare ceramic, brown carbon version panel PL8-1P with silver-plates contacts (1.2 microns of silver) made of special Bronze. Connection to the base is made only with tinned wires 0. 8mm.We are not using any Chinese parts or PCB boards in our savers and converters. We use the best metal tube socket base ever made in USSR. Our savers and converters withstand over than 1000 insertions. As a rule, savers are used in testers to keep the main gear safe and save it from many insertions
In our savers and converters, we use NOS components made 40-60 years ago. We assume that the quality of materials in those years was better than now. Further, it seems logical if you use a converter (saver) for the NOS (rare) tube from the same materials as your tube.
In all octal savers, we use metal tube base from kenotoron 4Ts14, which has exactly the same metal base as the now very popular 6N8S \ 1578 tube MELZ. We have developed a unique technology for dismantling this base from NOS 4c14 and the following assembly technology using thick copper single-core wires with a diameter of 0.8 mm (significantly better than in the original MELZ)
We are always ready to help you choose the right tube, saver, converter or socket. If you do not understand something - you can always write to us, we will help and advise you.
