How does the sound of the PCC88 and PCC189 compare to the 6922/6DJ8 and its iterations?
I'm not relying on all-over-the-place anecdotal reports of different users. I'm gathering information from all sources, sifting, evaluating and noting where there is consensus and divergence. Unfortunately the sample size of user experience is sma...

The former are also classified as 7DJ8 tubes. 
6922 Amperex PQ White label... D or O-getter? Holland or Hicksville?
How does the PCC88 and PCC189 sound compared to the 6922 variants?

So which tube has the most palpable midbass/low midrange 200-500 HZ response? 
Schiit Bifrost Multibit or Denafrips Ares?
Yes, allows use of a 6922 in a circuit designed for a 5670. A superior valve.

I don't mean the 7308 may have a diminished or attenuated midrange. It's a question of balance. The suggestion has been made (ie. Joe's Tube Lore) that some iterations are more "midrange forward" than others. However, with respect to sound, I supp...

Rodman99999... Delighted to take you up on your offer. I sent you a PM.

Is the "deep low end of the 7308" an actual phenomenon or merely the perceived effect of less midrange emphasis? 
MHDT Orchid TUBE ROLLING
The Orchid takes 5670 tubes. The adapter needs to convert 5670 pin configuration to 6922 pin configuration. What I am looking for a HIGH QUALITY pin adapter, not just any old adapter, that is, one with quality components and construction. I am awa...

Anyone have a link to a high quality 5670 to 6922 adapter?

Is the modification worthwhile for a digital cable? 
How much does a Zobel network and its components affect the sound of speakers?
