The Western Electric 274A is the HOLY GRAIL of High-End AUDIO tube RECTIFIERS. ..."Several tube audiophiles stand around someone's amplifier, conversing in reverential tones. They must be talking about the Western Electric 274A. No tube and possibly no component in the world of tube audio has attracted so much attention over the years than the 274A rectifier from Western Electric. Some of the finest audio amplifiers in the world use it even today.
WE 275A have became very scarce. Tube collectors and audiophiles throughout the world hoarded every original 274A that they could get their hands on.
The Western Electric 274A is a low-distortion sound-monster that lasts for over 40,000 hours. That's listening to your hi-fi for 24/7 for ~ 5 years continuous all day and all night. The Western Electric 274A was designed for extremely low maintenance & a very long life in licensed Western Electric theater amps (vintage mid 1930's - 1950's). Some have said that the output tube(s) have lasted over 40+ years in old movie theaters, and STILL in operation!!
