This is from a guitar amp manufacturer but looks like it may be good for HiFi as well... 200 UK pounds! Valve Tester MKII – Orange Amps

...contact address. By the way, I am in a hunt for the 6c33c-b tube tester. I got electrocuted once matching a duet and I'm never gonna do it...
Yep. Can't see why anyone would care that they got a 5751 instead of a regular 12AX7, considering the gear back then. You could've handed him a...
.. I remember tube testers in grocery and drug stores very well. My, how times have changed. ..
...was new tubes. I guess it just never occurred to me a tube tester would run on tubes but of course they would, does anyone know what type?...
I don't know how old you are, but I lived back in the day. The only time people would swap tubes is if something went so bad that they had to swap...
...they're biased - but the amp would start looking more like a tube tester than an SET. :biglaugh: I've spent several days futzing with the...
...the huge Heathkit store downtown and bought a Heathkit TT-1A tube tester kit. Anyways, I still have it -- it's mint but to answer your...
Sure send me a dm with the contact info. As you appreciate the "matching" I'm talking about has nothing to do with matching tubes to tubes--it has...
I have a question for the tube tester experts I hope can be answered: What tube tester can I buy that will test the Svetlana 572-10 tube (as well...
You seem to know a bit about tube testers, so I have a question for you. If I find an old Hickok or other vintage tester that has a four-pin...

The Space-Tech website is quite interesting. This looks like a pretty well thought out tester that tests the important parameters of tube...
Has there been any user feedback on this tube tester from Germany? [IMG]
This device does look great but seems I would need an extra module for the rectifiers. Still... good looking device!
@Larry I , the Space Tech Labs ATT3.0 does not test DHT or rectifiers at full power (using the required 300B/2A3 module). My understanding is that...
The Space Tech Lab ATT3.0 tests just about every small signal tube by selecting the tube in the electronic menu. Shipped it will cost about double...
I have 2 pair of these - matched within 5%. Comes from my personal stash which I'm selectively narrowing down, $250 per matched pair...
Thanks, it's good to hear you like it. I see they will substitute tube types, that's what I've been looking for in a tester.
I am not that familiar with old Hickok, although I have used TV-7s. Given the tube specification, I would be concerned about the 1,000 volt plate...
