I hadn't known that the A meant that a specific electrical property/parameter was present. Do you think it has an impact on the sound that tube produces? I have the irrational sense-I suspect from what you said about heater warm up time that it is irrational- that the A designated tubes aren't quite as good sounding as the non A tubes sound. This is certainly not my experience with the W designated tubes I have used e.g 6SN7WGT etc.. It may just be my own thinking, but I am curious if anyone else thinks this way?
