Was wondering what this Sylvania 6550 is worth. Metal base. Yellow letters. NOS with original box.

I was going to use it with a Vicky Regal,Mark told me that the 6550 will not work optimal with that amp even though with design of the amp you can use different power tubes.

You can look at EBay listings. Be nice to have a pair of matched 6550. Good testing NOS 6550's are getting hard to find. The GE 6550A and Tungsol 6550 are the primo NOS tubes. FWIW.

+1

A matched brace of serviceable 6550's is always much easier to sell than a single orphan. They'd be ideal for helping maintain a "pulse" in somebody's Sunn Sceptre or 200S head.
