Hi,
Wanted to try to mod my GSG to try out the 300b, are the Chinese Shuguang 300B worth trying?, Ebay has it for $112 a pair.
Thanks,
Peter

...Shuguang...


I have no idea what they are.

Personally, I wouldn't touch 'em.

Cheers!

Hi Greg ,
Are any of the Chinese 300B's better than 40's vintage 6B4G's , have a pair of outputs i want to use and need twice as many 6B4G's than 300B's to use them .

I've bought and tested some of these ultra cheap eBay 300Bs, though I can't say I've got hours of listening time on them. Bases seems a bit cheap, but they tested like true 300Bs. I think they'd be fine in the GSG.
