It needs to be said that I am concerned with the parameters that allow the tube to perform properly in any given customer's gear. I do not test the tube's ability to meet unique characteristics imposed by use in your products. To me that is two far different sets of test parameters.

It also needs to be said - so no one misinteprets your statement "It is possible that you are not concerned with the parameters that are important to us" - that I do not believe you were inferring that I don't do a thorough and complete job of testing the tubes. If you were I will just say you would have been badly mistaken, because I DO perform a thorough and complete test regimen on each tube before it is available for sale.

So are the -DR tubes "vastly superior"? In your gear it would seem so since I'm sure no one knows that better than you do! But for the entire population of 6H30 sockets out there your statement does not match my experience.

If you'd like to have the last word please feel free, but I'm going to bow out at this point. Again, thanks for posting and sharing your point of view!
