Brimar Thermionic Valves
Brimar thermionic products is the result of the frustration of not being able to purchase high quality valves at a reasonable price. Formed from ‘The Great British Valve Project’ we have used the expertise of many engineers who have provided us with their preferred list of thermionic tubes. Whilst this may not be everybody’s choice, it certainly embraces a wide scope of affordable vacuum tubes and this we have to accept until the return of British valve manufacturing where Mullard, Brimar, Hivac & the MO Valve Co. were the world leaders.
Our aim is to produce high quality vacuum tubes at an affordable price right here in Great Britain where the best engineers are today, still hungering after the reliability and classic sound they once produced. The process is complex as you can see from this public information film from the 1940s.
New old stock products are few and far between and command an excessively high price in consideration that the device in which they sit is worth less than the vacuum tubes themselves so we hope you appreciate the hard work and careful consideration that we have put into our offerings.
