Dat all he know.

You buy toobee from chinee boy, you need rubish bin soon.

All the tubes they make regardless of quality are sold.

So you need to buy 4 to get 2 good ones, luck permitting.

Wish there was more info on this matter in the fora. I would not have
dealt with this seller if warned. Really no one a positive experience
with these tubes?

The chinese tubes don't like being used at high voltage and high
temperatures.

Some goes for Chinese 'High End' players? Sorry, I don't recall names as
these all look/sound alike.

You mean CD players.

A guy here bought a Consonance player with tubed output, and nothing
special.
It gave trouble soon with whirring noises in the signal that nobody here
knew how to fix.

I had a look and found it to be a really awful POS to work on.

Compared to a Sony player with Allen Wright upgrade,
it just was nothing special.

Without the service manual which I could not get I could not
fix the unit.

Never ever buy ANYTHING unless there is a full workshop manual available
and good back up service.

The Chinese have a large distance to travel before their service support
entities are as good as those of say Yamaha.
