[Product Information]
Closely Matched Pair (2 tubes) of vintage NIB/NOS GE JAN 5654W Vacuum Tubes. Considered one of the best of the 5654/6AK5/EF95 family of tubes for audio use. 5654W tubes are Mil. Spec. (JAN) Electron Tubes - Higher Durability and Life. Vacuum tubes were obtained from factory sealed military surplus boxes and are guaranteed to test at NOS levels.
Premium upgrade for 7-pin 6J1, 6J1P, 6AK5, 6AK5W, EF95 and 5654 tubes used in microphones and preamps, including Little Bear, Little Dot, HIFIMAN, Yaqin and other quality amplifiers. Please note - these tubes should only be used to replace 6J1 / 6J1P and 6AK5 / 5654 tubes (do not substitute for other 7-pin tubes). It is important to check with your amplifier manufacturer to verify that 5654W tubes can be used as a replacement in your particular audio device.
Tested and matched by Riverstone Audio utilizing the best available equipment (Amplitrex AT1000). We do not sell untested tubes - never have and never will. Our engineers match tubes for BOTH plate current and mutual conductance, with test results clearly listed on each tube box. All tubes must also pass a specialized life test and an audio sound test. The 5654W tubes selected for these matched pairs test at NOS levels at or above 5000 micro-mho and at a plate current of 7.2 mA or higher.
Only the best tubes are considered for our matched tube sets. Less than 50% of the NOS 5654 tubes we test meet our standards for high fidelity audio use and are considered for use in our matched tube sets.
Vacuum tubes sold by Riverstone Audio will have the "Riverstone Audio" name, logo and QC label on the boxes. For matched 5654W quads please visit our Amazon Storefront.
