The MaxiMatcher Digital Tube Tester is a compact precision measurement station for the test bench or sales counter. It's designed to test power tubes for the electrical characteristics of Plate Current (Ip) and Transconductance (Gm). Any of the standard octal-base power pentodes common in today's audio amplifiers including 6L6, EL34, 5881 and 6550 can be tested. With optional adaptors the MaxiMatcher will also test EL84 nine-pin miniature pentodes, Novar power pentodes, 2A3 and 300B power triodes, EL509 plate-cap pentodes and many others.

The MaxiMatcher is used by the audio tech, music store salesperson, or audiophile enthusiast to quickly test a tube for operation and quality. Start by placing a tube in the short circuit test socket and you will quickly identify the culprit that's been blowing all those fuses! The MaxiMatcher can be used to precision-select loose tubes into accurate sets for mounting in power amps, as a point-of-sale aid in selling matched tube sets or for verifying customer tubes at the sales counter.

The MaxiMatcher tests up to four tubes at a time, and has a separate socket for short circuit testing. Easy directions for use are provided right on the top panel and the layout is clear and intuitive, making the MaxiMatcher simple to use and easy to understand. Separate selector switches for Bias Voltage, Plate Voltage, Measurement Function, and Test Socket Select are provided, along with the proprietary SmartFuse high speed protection circuit, indicators and a mains switch. All test data appear on a large, bright 3.5 digit LED display. Digital measurements are made by a proprietary sampling A/D converter allowing high resolution measurements.
