5U4 GB ( 5AS4A ) SYLVANIA for Baldwin NOS Black Plates Halo Getter Tested Tube MADE IN USA

Sound Description:
This Sylvania rectifier tube, made in the USA, is renowned for its balanced and musical sound signature, characterized by a natural and detailed sound. Perfect for tube amplifiers and vintage Hi-Fi systems, it offers an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics.

Low Range:
The bass is deep and well defined, with a controlled and never invasive presence. This feature guarantees a solid sound base, suitable for musical genres that require precision and articulation in the low frequencies.

Medium Range:
The midrange stands out for its transparency and rich timbre, which gives a warm and natural performance. Ideal for enhancing voices and acoustic instruments, it offers an expressive and nuanced sound reproduction.

High Range:
The high frequencies are smooth and crystal clear, with a brilliance that does not tire the listener. The clarity in the high frequencies allows you to pick out every detail, maintaining an overall harmonious balance.

General Sound Signature:
This tube is characterized by a wide and three-dimensional soundstage, with excellent separation between instruments. Its ability to handle complex dynamics and maintain a coherent timbre makes it an excellent choice for those looking for a refined and engaging sound reproduction, typical of high quality Sylvania grinders.

Shipping Costs

Shipping costs vary depending on the total amount of the items in the cart and are calculated automatically during the checkout process.
All shipments are fully insured. The courier is automatically selected based on destination, weight, and shipment characteristics.

Shipping Times and Delivery

The indicated delivery times are purely indicative.
Any delays, storage issues, or operational changes made by the carrier (for example during peak periods such as holidays) are not attributable to Vacuum Tubes Treasures.

In such cases, we will nevertheless provide the Customer with all necessary support to open claims or assistance requests with the appointed courier.

International Shipping (Non-EU Countries)

For orders shipped to countries outside the European Union, any customs duties, import taxes, or additional charges are the sole responsibility of the recipient.
Vacuum Tubes Treasures has no control over these costs, which may vary from country to country. Customers are therefore advised to contact their local customs authorities prior to placing an order.

Warranty

All products sold by Vacuum Tubes Treasures are covered by the legal warranty of conformity, in accordance with Italian Legislative Decree No. 206/2005 (Consumer Code) and the Italian Civil Code (Articles 1490 et seq.), under the conditions set out below.

Warranty for Vacuum Tubes

Vacuum tubes, being components subject to wear and of vintage or specialized nature, are covered by a specific warranty of 6 (six) months from the date of delivery.
The warranty covers exclusively proven manufacturing or conformity defects that arise during proper use in accordance with technical specifications.

The warranty does not cover:

  • normal wear and tear,

Conditions for Exercising the Right of Withdrawal

The right of withdrawal may be exercised only if:

  • the product has not been used,
  • the product is returned in its original condition,
  • the tamper-evident security seal is intact and not broken.

📌 Returns are not accepted for reasons related to sound preference, tube rolling, or subjective audio evaluation.

  • all payments received, including standard shipping costs, will be refunded,
  • refunds will be issued within 14 days from receipt of the returned goods,
  • the refund may be withheld until the goods have been received and inspected.

If the Customer receives a damaged or incorrect item, it must be reported within 5 (five) working days from delivery, by email or telephone, clearly stating the issue.

Uncollected Parcels, Storage, and International Shipments

It is the Customer’s responsibility to monitor the shipment and promptly arrange for collection or customs clearance.
Any costs, delays, or losses resulting from:

  • failure to collect the parcel,
  • prolonged storage,
  • abandonment of the parcel at customs,

do not entitle the Customer to any refund.

  • ATTENTION PLEASE

    Please understand that the writing on the glass of vintage valves has become very delicate over the years and comes off easily. You must handle them with extreme care to avoid this. Wear and damage to the writing on the valves reduces their market value and causes damage. Please exercise extreme caution.

  • ATTENTION PLEASE

    We wish to inform you that any attempts to manipulate shipping destination information in order to obtain lower shipping rates may be considered fraudulent acts. Please provide accurate information and contact us if you have any concerns. We reserve the right to review and, if necessary, cancel orders that we deem to be in violation of our conditions.
