I'll test tubes for anyone in the Chicago area free of charge.
I have both maxi matchers and an Orange VT1000. I have had no problems with the Orange although I know others have. The Orange is accurate according to the maxi marchers although you don't get numbers with it.
Looks like Orange is re-releasing their valve tester!

And it cost's more than a maxi matcherYeah, that's the one I have my eye on. But, the reliability issues of the VT1000 have me concerned.
I've used the original VT1000 now since it came out, and have tested a bunch of tubes for my own collection. I write down all the settings and try to match what I have. I used to buy tubes for every new amp, when they were affordable, lol. Not gonna lie, I want this new one.Looks like Orange is re-releasing their valve tester!
