In Reply to: OK. I'll take a dozen 6SNWs with metal bases! Nt posted by Frihed89 on May 31, 2016 at 22:38:36:
Current production 6SN7s that I have tried, such as Tung Sol and standard Russian product along with regular Chinese product are tolerable at best. Not always terrible but nothing like or approaching the sound quality of even ordinary Sylvania 6SN7s from (circa) the 50s and not remotely close to the 6SN7W metal base tubes. In my mind the black based Ws are also very, very good.
There are other tube types where this applies but I have found the current production Gold Lion KT-88s (Russian) are indeed excellent as Mike Samra has pointed out. I am very happy with the lot I got from Jim.
