  Anyone on Tungstram 6DJ8s?
I just replaced these in my Bel Canto SEP1 pre amp. I don't believe they are the stock tubes? What a difference with the change, but I was wondering if anyone knows the scoop on these babies? I never heard them mentioned on the 'gon.

I tried some Tungsram 6922. They were without question the worst tubes I have ever heard. Lifeless and dull...like listening with your head under a blanket.

On the other hand, I own some Tungsram 12AU7, and they are remarkably good. Similar in tone to Mullard.

Grant, I also have a trio of Tungram 12AU7/ECC82... not only are they very similar in tone to Mullard - they ARE Mullards - manufactured in the Blackburn factory and labeled Tungsram!

Wow! Never heard of that. Good going, Joe. Mine are not manufactured by Mullard as far as I can tell. New production East European variety. But, they still have a Mullard-esque sound.
