Bwhite, you are a genius.
I tried the 6106 months ago and I think I was the first to slam the tube for having weird timing. Didn't like it at all.
I took your advice and let it burn in for three days. Wham! This tube rocks. Clearly better than the venerable 5AR4/GZ34. No contest. I didn't realize the 5AR4 was muddy until I put the 6106 in. And the 3D palpability is much increased.
Once again, thanks for the inspiration to give this tube another try. It's now my reference rectifier.
