Seriously, why is there a shortage of Mullard 6112? Can't they make more?

Mmmm.....lol! I'm sure that somewhere there are many unemployed, 70 year old tube makers. Can't we force them back to work and start churning those damn tubes? Lol! I'm so damn happy today.....I don't know why......

The desperate search for these Mullard tubes!

 
 
I left word to my trusted supplier lets see if they jump out .. for a confrontation he has never let me down ...

Almost traded my Mullards in a deal with other bits for the Oriolus MK2 - glad I didn't now
 
Seems like they are now almost impossible to get

mmm......nyah nyah nyah nyah! Lol! Oh the humanity........seriously, any of you guys getting the CV5?????

I haven't owned the 

  For the CDM? Grab the pre-mounted Sonotone 5719 on ALO's site, while they still have them. If in a magical parallel universe you can find Mullard 6112, snatch them up and get a few for me.

Personally I haven't owned the CDM yet, and I'm still wondering if it is a good match with Shure SE846 IEM ? But anyway, thanks for the recommendation. 
 
Mullard 6112 ? Is it the best vacuum tube?

I owned a CDM and the SE846.  It was a REALLY good pairing.
 
I spent some time with Ken Ball listening to the pair before I bought the CDM.  He said the same.

The combination of each tube with the CDM may give you different nuances in the sound but we say that in general, if a headset sounds good already doing "rolling" pui find the best result also depending on your taste ..

I hope to get a CV5 back in my stack! Was a great experience for the few days I got to play with it, courtesy of Mr. Ball. 
 
Was going to pull one of the Mullards out of my CDM and plug it into the CV5, but since it was a short-term loan didn't want to mess with the CV5 too much. 
 
Once I get one back I'll be sure to let you all know. Cheers

Mmmm....how is the RF shielding holding up on the CV5, compared with the CDM, which lights up like crazy when stacked with a smartphone or even DAPs on wifi?

Yeah, unfortunately that's still an issue in my experience, at least with the prototype that I got to play with. Cheers

Wow. I'm wondering what genre of music you listening to ? 

 

[Seamaster]

the bassline of 846 is unmatched, yet

 

[Seamaster]

I ordered CDM because i feel 846 is kind of cool sounding

Well the CDM will "warm" it right up!
