Nope. Gotta find the old ones that BAT used to sell. Usually about $200 a pop.

"This tube was made by Reflektor throughout the '80's up to 1992. This is the same 6H30 Supertube offered by Balanced Audio Technology as their premium replacement." Price is $200/tube.

Having 16 x 6550 tubes makes it expensive to tube roll. I would luv to hear the new ART amplifier - too rich for me ATM enjoy the playing around with the new toy. cheers |

Cyril ... so when the time comes, do I want NOS 6H30-DR or something else for the BAT VK-52SE?

Randy...if you do a quick search on the Gon, you will see quite a few threads on the 6H30-DR and some people swear by them and others have not noted such a big difference. I checked on BAT's website and on the VK-52SE's product page, it does not list the complete compliment of tubes but it says it has the 6H30 BAT supertube which is the NOS 6H30-DR I believe. So I think you are good to go. Does your manual list what all the tubes are in the preamp?

Cyril ... the manual is not handy, but as I recall it just said 6H30. I was curious primarily as between NOS and Sovtek. Thanks for the help. (And sorry about the threadjack).
