Members pan Posted July 29, 2005 Members Share Posted July 29, 2005 Hi there, hope you guys can help me out. A friend of mine got this nice Ampeg head (model B-25B) and he wants to buy new tubes for it (pre- and poweramp). So any suggestions are welcome...thanks in advance. Take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fretless Posted July 29, 2005 Members Share Posted July 29, 2005 if those are 7027 power tubes , I think only Sovtek makes a new one , you may want to hunt down some NOS .Here is some 7027 infohttp://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=985160&highlight=7027 sovtek's http://search.store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/nsearch?catalog=yhst-8476489043850&query=7027&.autodone=http%3A%2F%2Fedit.store.yahoo.com%2FRT%2FNEWEDIT.yhst-8476489043850%2F6a31ae1ded2d%2Fnsearch.html any fresh 12ax7 should do , I like to get different brands and pop in to see if I like them , they are usually cheap enough http://search.store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/nsearch?catalog=yhst-8476489043850&query=7027&.autodone=http%3A%2F%2Fedit.store.yahoo.com%2FRT%2FNEWEDIT.yhst-8476489043850%2F6a31ae1ded2d%2Fnsearch.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members der oxenrig Posted July 29, 2005 Members Share Posted July 29, 2005 JJ makes 7027s as well, and should sound much better than the Sovteks. Bob has them at www.eurotubes.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hawkhuff Posted July 30, 2005 Members Share Posted July 30, 2005 I put NOS Sylvanias in my SVT III preamp. I purchased them from an antique radio website. I have been very happy with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members phatster Posted July 30, 2005 Members Share Posted July 30, 2005 Pan..I corresponded with terry @ tubetramp.com and he can definately fix you up with NOS 7027's.I strongly recommend as I have bought all my vintage tubes from him since I stumbled onto him via plexipalace.com.He is always cheaper than the afore mentioned places,believe me I've tried all that have been mentioned thus far.GOOD LUCK I love my V4!!
