Title: Phil's TV
Post by: scorpio333 on September 15, 2021, 04:38:38 PM
Anyone heard anything about the business or his inventory? I live 3/4 under a rock and thought maybe someone here has heard an update. I'm looking for a 5751 tube and Walmart is fresh out. Funny that we're such a instant gratification society yet most things are 2-5 days away from our hands.

I'll check tonight. How many do you need? I should have a couple.

Just looking for one.

I have a pair of 5751 that I use in my phono pre (JD9), looking for one for the pre amp section of my amp, Jolida 1102. The JD9 is great, but there's an issue somewhere in it. Using hi outs, it's dead silent but has a ton of gain. Using the low outs for less gain is 100% unusable, hisses very loud. Wanted to experiment using the 5751 in pre slot as they're 30% less gain than a 12AX7. Someday I need to investigate fixing those low outputs.

Donnie passed away, I think Phil's tv is closed.
