A week after ordering I received a pair of nicely packed Brimar CV4034’s with bakelite base and new pins, all shiny and appearing brand new. They are to replace a pair of Brimar 13D5’s, that unfortunately create a steady hissing sound. In my preamp CV4034’s possess the supreme, sonic beauty I have grown so addicted to with the 13D5’s, and sound even better than the 13D5’s! And they are of course dead silent. With the new old stock pin-fitted Brimar CV4034 in my gear • dynamics are enhanced, • treble clarity is almost paranormal yet sweet and pleasent, • midrange presence makes me fall in love with the singers through their voice, • bass is manly yet perfectly controlled to make the music play with enticing rhythm, • sound stage is revealingly three-dimensional, • there is no instrument meandering, the positioning is rock solid. Every other pair of tubes I may buy in the future will only serve to prove the supremacy of these tubes. A real bargain – a tremendous upgrade.
