Folks, are there any replacements for the above mentioned tubes?
I did a search on them, wasn’t able to find anything. My preamp is using them, wanted to buy a spare set, but there’s virtually nothing on the web.
Thanks in advance.

6Ж51П == EF184 == 6EJ7
6Ж51П, Tube 6Ж51П; Rohre 6Ж51П ID43289, Vacuum Pentode
6Ж9П == E180F == CV6189
6Ж9П, Tube 6Ж9П; Rohre 6Ж9П ID18867, Vacuum Pentode
6j51p sell for EUR 2,-- , 6j9p for under EUR 1,-- here on the bay in Europe and there are plenty of them ...
try searching for 6j.. / 6zh.. / 6Ж.. instead of 6sch.. any you will strike ...

Thank you very, very much, Sorento. So, to make sure I got it all correct -
6Ж51П, EF184, 6EJ7 are direct replacements for 6SCH51P, and 6Ж9П, E180f, CV6189 for the 6sch9p tube?
Thanks again!
Exactly. Plug & Play.
6Ж51П = 6J51P = EF184 = 6EJ7
6Ж9П = 6J9P = E180F = CV6189 = 6688A (found another equivalent)
The russian letter Ж does not exist in latin alphabet, it is translated as J, Z, ZH, SH, SCH ... because it sounds similar ...

Appreciate your help, man, I really do. The funniest thing is I’m fluent in Russian, but couldn’t see the resemblance 😉
Also, sorry for bothering you again, but do you know by any chance of any replacements for the 6S3P-EV tube? Thanks you.
Ha Ha ... смешно́ it is indeed ...
6s3p is russian single triode
6С3П = 6S3P = EC86 (europe) = 6CM4 (USA) = 6T2 (similar)
6С3П-ЕВ = 6s3p-ev is russian special quality and E86C and EC806S come to mind as european special quality tubes. Haven't seen any of these though. But pinout and function is same as EC86 which is still available.

Really? Compare the pinouts. The 6S3P-EV was designed for gounded cathode operation, while the EC86 etc. are grounded grid triodes.
Best regards!
Kay is right. Not plug & play.
Will only work for audio if just pins 2, 3, and 9 are being used as g, k, and anode.
I should have read my cross reference list more carefully where it says " not always pin compatible ".
Sorry for that ....

Besides the fact that some of them are Special Quality tubes, 6CM4, EC86, E86C and EC806 basically are the same. I don't know the 6T2, though, nor do I find some data 'bout it.
Best regards!
Best regards!
Thanks Kay! But are the replacements mentioned here for the 6SCH51P And 6SCH9P tubes are the plug’n’play type? Already placed the order...
According to a very popular German tube related site, yes! Don't be afraid, it really isn't necessary at all to understand the German text 😀.
Best regards!
Edit: May I aks how much you payed for the Russian EF184?
