In Reply to: Since ever 6SN7 was mentioned but my personal favorite are the 6SN7 TS Round Plates posted by Michael Samra on September 28, 2016 at 17:14:16:
Ever since I started searching for the best-sounding 6SN7GTs, when I owned Antique Sound Lab Hurricanes, I quit looking when I found the TSRPs*. Indeed some are highly microfonic, but enough that I've bought are not, and I've kept most of them.
I currently use six in my Atma-Sphere M60 Mk.3.3s...
(but I now use a A-S plug and not a tube in the center-rear socket)
...and, lucky me, I have an even dozen in reserve.
Actually, I'm not lucky, I'm simply willing to pay the c. $100-each prices on eBay to get the good ones. Here's the most-recent quad I bought...
They didn't look nearly this good when they arrived, and they averaged about $70 each IIRC.
* FWIW, my 2nd-favorite 'N7 is the Ken-Rad VT-231.
