Price of those have gone into the effing nuts area. I tried the Bendix in my MFA amps and after a week or so I determined there was not enough of a difference to keep them there and went back to the Amperex 7119 made in Holland. The 7119 will cost only 10% of a 6900. Perhaps in your amp the 6900 is worth the price. regards, Dak

Yes DAK every component is different and hence the sound a tube makes in two different amps will sound different! Not being DIY-savy, I had to be able to just pull the 5687 and replace it with the 6900 tubes. I was told the 7119 or maybe it was the 7044 was NOT a direct, drop-in replacement tube like the 6900 tube is for a 5687! So unless the OP is DIY knowledgeable and can change the pinouts he's out of luck like I was. But it worked out great because I love those 6900 tubes!I'm listening to: Holland by Beach Boys

Otherwise they would not work in my MFA amps.
