Yes Ed has the 572-10 mu variant or it may be the 572-3 mu. Ant has some of the 811-10 the 811 versions would just be a little lower rated for dissipation. But all the Svetlana valves went into shortage at once.

Of course the 10 mu ones are just like 211's and due to shortage of 572-10 and such as psvane making new 211's , similarly they make 845's which would sub for the 572-3, meaning don't get carried away trying to buy the rarer Svetlanas.

I just decided to do this because of a particular character to the sound of the high mu valves which I happen to like.

Similarly I have usually preferred the 211 to the 845.

The two for stock is where it all begins, then you end up a hoarder like me. Thin end of the wedge Father.
