Enjoying a bit of valve rolling atm and managed to track down some specific valves I was after on Fleabay, a matched set too.

Got parcel in the post this morning and opened it up.

Apparently this is considered a matched pair? :scratch:

Bronze plate O-getter and a black plate D-getter. (Advertised as Black/D on Advert)
Obviously a mixup somewhere, it happens.
Plumbed them in and one sounds obviously different than the other.

Asked the guy specifically if they were matched (within 10%) and that they were both black plate D getters.
Yes to both.
Seller away till after New Year, back the 4th. Ah well.

The set I have i already sound great so no biggie. :)
