The tube simulator DSP I was testing doesn't isolate distortion like that. The "triode" distortion is heavy on 2nd order but also adds other harmonics at lower levels. and the Pentode was heavy on 3rd order. The Pentode was easier to detect at lower levels than the Triode. So I would suspect if I could isolate 7th it would be even easier to detect. With a 500 hz test tone what would the the 7th harmonic be? 7kHz? or there abouts? I would suspect you'd be able to hear that at -70 to -80 db if it's just the single tone. I am guessing 9th order would be beyond my hearing range
