Default My new quad SED EL34 arrived

Today I received my quad set of SED EL34's in the mail for my Dynaco ST-70. They came in the original SED boxes, not unmarked white boxes. Unfortunately I won't have time to test them in my amp as I am going away on business for a week. I also received my new quad electrolytic capacitor so I will replace that and the tubes when I return.

Here is a photo if the tubes, you would think when you buy a matching set it would mean the height also..... maybe I am being anal.

Regards,
Sal Brisindi

This isn't vintage radio here, we're more concerned with how it works than how it looks. It's a shame they're not all the same height, but think what electrical and mechanical matching would do to the reject rate (and price).
