Seller Notes:

“ a nice, used and well working pair WE 300B from early in 1961, features the 2nd oldest postwar style, the double D getter, and early generation made after the prewar single ring getter was phasd out. Our calibrated TV7 Tested both very, very strong at around 90 (approx 107%) (min 58 TV7). Both have tube VERY GOOD projected life. Both have very nice, clear glass, with slight browning at the tops, from gentle, occasional use over the years. The bases are tight, no cracks,with beautiful yellow letters. 

A well cared for pair of low use WE 300B --  they are perfectly matched, and have early double D getters, both from November 1961.

 The tubes were carefully tested on a calibrated TV7, reading a near perfect match 89 & 90 for each (where a min=58 TV7 = acual 65%, which means these are approximately 107%)  no shorts and GOOD projected life.

These gems were carefully stored, as a spare for many years, by an audiophile as backup, and are working perfectly well (will be posting test video demonstration, see below). Both tubes have good performance, when tested in WE91 single ended amp, both sounded excellent, I played loudly for 30 minutes, and did not want to turn off!  Just as you would expect early 300B's to -- audiophiles seek these, the post war, "single D getter" and "double D getter" because they are built so well, they featured the most uniform construction and consistant quality, and over the years listeners noticed how wonderful they sound -- and for their extended lifespan -- D getters came after the WWII era round getter's.

See our 100% feedback, to be assured SAFE PACKING & DELIVERY. The shipping cost for international destinations will reflects EMS Express Mail service only (for increased safety), as well as shipment in (2) seperate boxes.   

(See test reports Exhibit B,C,D,E). The base yellow ink on both are beautiful, all letters are very legible. As you can see from photos, both present very nicely, with clear glass, and slight browning at tops indicating gentle and seldom use.

  These are members of the double D getter generation, which ran from the mid 1950s through the mid 1960s -- they are ultra sought after by audiophiles and collectors -- the originals, nearly 60 years old, the real McCoy everybody wants. ...  Guaranteed NO DOA.  A real 300B can provide the detail and tone you can rely only on very old WECO triodes for.  Original production...

These tubes sounded beautiful when played with music when tested in WE 91 single ended circuit at 5.2 volts filament.  Very good function, in the single ended circuit.  NO SHORTS, both checked perfect beyond 2 megohms in Jackson machine. ) Tests made in multiple calibrated testers, including a Calibrated TV/7 the world's standard for WE tubes.... GM (mutual conductance) (TV7 minimum is 58 which is 65%, ) -- the tubes read 89 and 90 (which is around 107%). 

For easy reference, see Exhibits (B,C). These are gently used tubes, both scoring a VERY GOOD projected life. A test in which tubes are tested under reduced filament voltage.

The original  era of the O getter arrangement (begininng in the engraved base 1930s,  until the mid 1940s, when WE abruptly sswitched to 1x lower "D" shape, which remained until the 1960s. The "double" D getter, as this tube features is known to many audiophiles to be an excellent era -- where super nice detailed sound is expected.

Early 300B's are getting quite scarce now. This is one of the best sounding postwar 50s-60s era 300B's to own. 

    Vintage Western Electric's are the king of triode sound - you will hear enhanced clarity, great tone, agile pitch - all the while maintaining legendary smoothness. 1950s 300B's generally test stronger and produce even better quality audio than triodes of the  later production. Collectors know originals are for the keeping and using!

This beautiful pair of tubes will sell very quickly.

See our 100% feedback, to be assured SAFE PACKING & DELIVERY. The shipping cost for international destinations will reflects EMS Express Mail service only (for increased safety), as well as shipment in (2) seperate boxes. 

These are likely the best tested, and original 300B with boxes you'll see anywhere.  They  come with original type WECO  cotton excelsior and boxes -- will be TRIPLE BOXED in strong 275lb triwall cartons.
