@rocray sorry I didn’t use the correct terminology. I believe maybe that they are black plates, but the tubes that I’m referring to are the same tubes shown in your last post.
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes
I just placed an order for a pair of these for my Aric Audio Motherlode II. I’ve been chatting with a fellow that runs the E 6sn7 in his Don Sachs pre. He loves them, He says they make his NOS tubes sound thin and lifeless.
It will be a couple weeks until I receive them,and I was curious if anyone out in Agon land has tried these,and what are your impressions?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

Hi @marco1, no worries! I was a little confused. I think the quality issue you’ve experienced is not uncommon when purchasing from overseas sellers. I was very fortunate getting two sets of tubes without issues. In the grand scheme of things,I would think that the manufacturer would want to clean this situation up. Folks like you that are turned off by horrible quality control, will not throw good money after bad,trying to chase a good set of tubes. That’s not good for anyone. I’m sorry to hear you had the same issues with Psvane Summits. I was thinking of giving them a try at some point. I guess I’ll have to rethink spending the money on them. |
@rocray actually it was a well respected US seller. I’ll refrain from naming names as I think it’s a tube problem. You can PM me for specifics if interested. It seems you as well as many others have had good luck with these tubes so I may try again in the future in case the seller happened on a bad batch. |
