Home Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

I've got enough NOS to last a couple lifetimes...

but just curious.

Was surprised that one of my favorite 6SL7 types (NU Black Glass) sounded a bit veiled when compared to some recently made Chinese equivalent, at least when used as a phase splitter/driver in a decent sounding PP amp.

Again, as mentioned below, circuits matter when comparing tubes.

And I thing this particular PP Amp was 'voiced' for Chinese tubes as that's what the builder uses.


First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
