To state the obvious - they are too new for many (any?) sales AND more importantly, many people are waiting for someone else to try them. Did you read the 6Moons review?

Hey, you have connections, how about you?

Yes, I have read the 6Moons review and I have been auditioning the Linlai black plate and WE replica 300Bs.

The tubes are so new, I am hoping to gather som outside thoughts.

thank you for replying

Perhaps they're just too new for comparison yet.

Seems no one knows yet.

Time for you to jump in, try them and let us all know!

I have a pair with about 200 hours on them. Using them in Canary M80 mono's. So far they are excellent tubes. It takes a while for the bass to gain impact. The midrange is very good on vocals and especially sax and trumpet. Imaging is top notch. They are a step above my other Genelex and Shuguang black bottles. I have not heard any of the WE or premium 300B's but can't imagine they could sound hugely better.

interesting PF article, but testing 300B tubes in DAC output is not the same as cranking out 6-8 watts in a power amplifier, so I wonder how they compare in an amp. $900-$950/pair is not exactly loose change, either..
