Earspeakers Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 $147 is market rate, actually slightly higher. I bought matched quads for $580 USD (actually might have been $560). My source still has them (and many more) available if anybody is interested, matched quad Brimar xf2 for immediate shipment. So not sure what the GB gets us here, no matching, slightly higher price, and no price break. Can you negotiate on a better price because of the quantity? If the price was down t $110 or something due to a GB then it gets interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvdunhill Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I would probably insist on AT1000 data for each tube to be seriously interested in a group buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s_r Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I'm interested, depending on how much a matched quad totals in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I'm interested, depending on how much a matched quad totals in the end. This, I'll add myself to the GB and see what happens. Price is not great, but not bad either, I guess those tubes are better than the JJ and worth the expense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helium Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Can someone please explain what AT1000 data is? Is it related to Amprobe AT1000 tracer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cannot provide AT1000 data for each tube as he doesn't have the equipment. He will however provide Avo 163 data on each tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
