I like these tubes a lot and I also have 3 quads of NIB/NOS gray glass however,I'm assuming they aren't matched up because I got them from five didn't sources..If I check them,they may be closer than I think.

Here is the funny thing.These were standard tubes in the Heath W5ms but for some reason the RCA 6L6gc black plates sound better in the W5ms.I think it may matched better to the amp or maybe because the RCA are an actual black plate where the gray glass are also a gray plate under the bottle.I found this out busting open a shorted one.
I really like the KT66 reissues.They are a tiny but strident at first but once they break in,they become a different tube.
