Tim deParavicini (EAR-Yoshino) told me old tubes are better because the people making them did so as a career, with a lot of experience under their belts before they were promoted to the position of making them. To the people making them today, doing so is just a job for now---they are not experts in the field, as were the old-timers. He told me he prefers old Mullards, which may be partly because he is British.
NOS tubes
My question is this, why are NOS tubes percieved/ or not, said to sound better than newly manufactured ones, with all the new technology and manufacturing techniques and materials you would think the opposite to be true, but then again I guess it’s the same as solid state vs. tubes,
Thanks,
