The tube, cylindrical with a rounded top, features a transparent glass envelope revealing a complex internal structure typical of electronic tubes used in vintage radio or audio equipment. The base of the tube is equipped with several perfectly aligned metal pins, characteristic of models from the second half of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original box, visible in the photo, displays a two-tone blue and red graphic with yellow and black inscriptions. On the visible side, you can find the mention \"GARANTIE\" (WARRANTY) as well as warranty instructions, clearly printed in French. The \"MINIWATT DARIO\" logo appears twice, confirming the authenticity and origin of the tube. The box appears to be in good overall visual condition, although there is slight crushing on the upper corner and some signs of wear consistent with its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tube has a shiny finish, with no obvious signs of cracks or impact on the visible part. A partially legible engraved or printed inscription is visible on the glass, typical of the brand's original markings. The metal pins appear straight and not oxidized on the visible side, a sign of proper preservation. No additional accessories are visible in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of electronic tube was commonly used in high-fidelity radio or audio equipment from past decades, particularly in tube radios and some vintage amplifiers. The overall aesthetic, the typography of the box, and the design of the tube suggest production between the 1950s and 1970s, a period when Miniwatt Dario was a recognized player in the field of electronic components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe joint presentation of the tube and its original box, as well as the presence of a printed warranty, enhance the appeal of this lot for restoration or vintage decoration. The ensemble immediately evokes the retro atmosphere of radio workshops and audiophiles of the mid-20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUsed item, sold as is, untested.
