Let's share secrets of Lamm 6C33C tubes


Lamm owners please share your experience on the 6C33C tubes in relation to the V1 and V2 positions.

I know the Lamm is very specific with their factory tubes as to which tubes goes where but I guess many owners would have brought from other suppliers and did the matching themselves.
I found that nearly all tubes work on the V1 position but not on V2. Now, I brought tubes from The Tube Stores and they marked them with range between(18 - 39)! I wonder what would be the best combination? Anyone knows the secrets?

I don't know Lamms, but my experience with Eastern-sourced tubes is the opposite of Jedinite24. Of around a dozen shipments of 6C33C totaling 50 tubes I received one tube with broken glass. Do expect a 10-25% failure rate over the life of this tube. My experience with arcing out of Eastern-sourced tubes is about the same as with BAT-sourced tubes.
