I realize you can't tell by looking at a tube if it works or not, BUT... I was going through my attic because we're moving and found a bin with a few tubes. I have what looks to be like 4 12AX7A's (3 RCA and 1 Telefunkin) and 2 12AU7A's (both RCA). There are also 2 oddballs - 6AU6A and 6CG7. Is there any way to tell the age on these? I don't see anything resembling a date code or anything. Are there any remotely moderns uses for the other 2? All the tubes look like they're about the same age.
