Re: EH Gold 6H30's, 6SN7's, 6C45's good for BAT gear?

"The EH golds are not broken-in, but they sound incredibly rolled-off."

First, you need to understand that other than a couple DHTs, the "EH Gold" tubes are just standard EH with gold plated pins.

Second, I have never heard anything approaching your observation about the EH 6SN7 ever before! If I hear any comments at all it is that the top end may be a bit too strong for some (that's the EH "house sound", so to speak).

I really suspect that something else is going on here. A rolled off top end is not representative of the EH 6SN7 sonic signature. And they tend to relax some on top as they break in, not get stronger.
