One thought on “Raytheon CK 5814 Windmill Getter”
I’ve been lucky lately in finding great tubes. This time it is the dreaded Gray Plate tube, but it’s a well regarded Raytheon 5814 Windmill getter. The tube is truly unique. It has a very unusual plate structure. Not only they have 3 holes in the middle of the plate, but also one end with an L-shaped corner with a cut in the middle, plus that very interesting looking windmill getter instead of regular [] or O shaped getter. Sound-wise, it’s definitely one of the best, great soundstage, very dynamic. It reminds me of the 5751 Windmill – I guess they had the same designer behind them. Great tube!!! Highly Recommended.
