7 pin sockets
« on: February 14, 2011, 08:59:10 am »
Hi,

A good friend gave me around 10 6AQ5/EL90 output tubes. I would like to use them... AFAIK, they are pretty close to 6V6 packaged in a 7 pin miniature bottle. I do not have any 7 pin socket on my inventory and the only 7 pin sockets I found are listed on AES site - doug does not stock them - under the following codes:

P-ST7-814 ;
P-ST7-201MXB ;
P-ST7-205L ;

Which would be best to use?

Thanks in Advance.
With Respect.
Best Regards,
RZENC

Any of these will work fine.  Triode caries several at http://store.triodestore.com/7pinsockets.html.  So does Angela at http://angela.com/sevenpintubesocketsandaccesories.aspx, Apex Jr at http://apexjr.com/Sockets.htm.
