Seems like they're back producing valves, using the old Mullard equipment. All the desirable 'usual suspects' are there: KT88s, 6N7s and ECC83s, etc. Looks interesting! Might give some a go... :cool:

Still got some Brimar NOS valves tucked away somewhere. They were OK. Wonder if the new production will measure up?

Indeed... Only one way to find out! ;)

Been out for a while. Nice prices but are they any good? Go for it Marco.;)

I would be more confident in the reliability of their products if they knew how to spell "consistency"! For God sake use a spell-checker when issuing marketing materials.

It may well be the same equipment (back from Russia by all accounts), but I've been told they are not allowed to use the metals they used to use, which will effectively change the performance somewhat from the old ones
They may be ok and I'm told the prices are reasonable so may well be worth a punt
Go for it
