Raytheon 6G-B6 information

mltube · 29th March 2010, 02:05 AM

Have any of you fellow DIY's heard of this tube?
I don't have a camera to post pic yet, but I will attempt with description.
The tube looks almost identical to the 6cu6 family, and the pinouts are of the same configuration. (Japan mfg) I have looked everywhere for specs on this tube to no avail. The tube has a nice clean sound hooked up similarly to the cu6 with 5k opt.
Just wondering if the tube is a generic replacement for 6cu6, or is it something of a different beast.

Thanks in advance for any information,
Michael(mltube)
