6SN7---- various versions--are they interchangeable

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

I'm playing with a Yaqin Tube Buffer between my tuner and integrated. It comes with some type of Chinese tube ( 6N8P ) but the 6SN7 can be used.

I've noticed that there are many variations of the 6SN7 - GT-GTA-GTB-W,

WGT,GTA and others. Are all of these interchangeable ( they fit and electrically are OK ) or is there something I should look out for.

Thanks in advance.
