red series 3 Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 I bought a crown that was advertised as a 702 but it has turned up as a 700 crown no dots under the coronet in beautiful condition. I would like to use it but is there any where to source a tube? I have seen on Yuki and phongs site that they advertise a 700 tube, are these any good? Is there any chance of a gen article?

dropbear2008 Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Congratulations on your haul. I have seen gen tubes go for as much as the crown itself, so I think Yuki would be worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Yuki's 24-7000s have worked well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiman12 Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 The Yuki tubes work just fine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red series 3 Posted December 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thank you, I'll order one. Will a 700 crown really sell for the $300 I see them advertised for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavidoc Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I think I have a gen 700 tube. If you can send me a photo of what it is supposed to look like I can tell you. If I do, you can have it for dirt cheap. Just collects dust and I have no need for it. Not certain though if it's for a 700 or a 702.

red series 3 Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 This is what I think they look like. My understanding is that you need to ream out the spline once installed to allow the crown to screw down. It looks like the rep item does not need this to be done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
