4.47.30.222

as they may go zing-o in any preamp that runs the tubes hard. That tube is the most sensitive of any 6922, and the most prone to microphony of ANY made. But I think it is due to its microphonic "nature" that people like them for their vibrancy.

But put them in a Mod 3 and you will have a bad day. Put them in a low gain preamp, input on a power amp, or buffer for any that don't work in the former.

They are beauts though. very nice find.
