I am not a tube expert, but I have actually listened to a PSVANE 12au7. They are excellent tubes. The PSVANE is not a warm sounding tube like some others. It is definitely a very high resolution and detailed tube. I think it's even better than the Electro-Harmonix. The Electro-Harmonix is another high resolution and detailed tube, but it could be seen as somewhat sterile when compared to the PSVANE. I have no idea how the sound compares to the Genalex.
12AU7 Genalex or Psvane for Cayin Hybrid Integrated H80A
In my search, I haven't found much that directly compares Genalex to Psvane 12AU7 recently. So far, I have had the Cayin OEM, Electro Harmonix, & Genalex, and my favorite is Genalex - quieter, smoother & more dynamic than the previous two.
I am now interested in trying Psvane purely out of curiosity & because it is within my budget for now. Not really interested in spending much more.
BTW, if you require system details, look for my Gallery at US Audio Mart site under member name ejc_xrx.
Thanks in advance for any input.
