- Several years ago, a CQ magazine writer extolled the virtue of the Sylvania or Amprex 3-500Z. he said it had heavier graphite on the plate and a different pate design which allows for more power diss

- I can't comment on the quality of current production Amperex tubes. But, I have a pair manufactured in the late 60's in a HB version of a Henry 3K. These tubes have thousands of hours of serious cont

- I cant see how the material of the plate would have an effect on how it sounds. The graphite plate is used a lot in RF sealing equipment. I junked down several machines a few back, all used carbon pl
