See the title. Seem to be much (much) less common than their 6SN7W counterparts.

that 'round plate' thing only seems t make sense with radial construction, like 75TL and 4-125A...for the two-post supported grid, the path length to the plate from cathode and cathode to grid wire varies *ALOT* as one sweeps around an arc.

I have no 6Sl7 amps, but amongst the 6SN7, this tube is also coveted. But to tell you the truth, it's too balanced and too neutral for me. I prefer Raytheons as drivers and outputs (in OTL head amps for example).
