Almost NOS.  You can trust that mine are in excellent condition.
May also replace 6N1P EV, 6N1P EB, 6N1P, 6N2P-EV, 6N2P-EB.  Amazing in my SE34i.3.

Very detailed, clean, rich.  Sparkly highs. Not bloated.  Strong bass.  Full range. I love 'em but have to let them go.  Have too many tubes.

I have them on ebay for $175 Buy it Now. http://www.ebay.com/itm/291077703534

Compare at over $215.00 for the pair if you can find these coveted hard to find tubes.
