Shuguang & Psvane WE845 Tubes

Posted by thetubeguy1954 on February 18, 2020 at 16:37:15:
Before I say anything else I should make it know that I own a quad of Psvane WE845 tubes I use in a Mastersound Reference 845, SET amp and I absolutely love their "sound."

That said, there's a very real possibility that the Shuguang WE845 sounds better than the Psvane WE845 tubes do! Why do I say that?

Well, it turns out that Psvane voiced their WE845 tubes to sound like the original WE284a tubes. But Shuguang voiced their WE845 tubes to sound like the later, and better-sounding, WE284d tubes!

So it's quite possible the Shuguang WE845 tubes sound better than the Psvane WE845 tubes do. A comparison of these two tubes is definitely something that should be done...
