I will have to chime in here and also give a big thumbs up for the 1975 6N23P silver shield Reflector tubes. I have tried just about every 6922 out there over the past 30 years, and found them to be my favorite sounding variation. They even beat out the Amperex pinched waist 6922's in my amps. The big problem is finding a good, strong testing, matched pair from a reliable seller. It took me many purchases until I finally got some that tested well. There is a member who just listed a pair, but he has marked them up from the $300 he originally paid to a whopping $800/pr!
1975 New Reflektor 6n23p SWGP or Siemens/Amperex/Telefunken Cca?
Contemplating shooting for the moon with the 6DJ8/6922 tube type. The moon appears to be either the 1975 New Reflektor 6n23p SWGP or Siemens/Amperex/Telefunken Cca. For reference, the link below asserts the former is the Holy Grail.

Curious what the here assembled opine.
Would be installed into a 2006 Dodd Battery Powered Preamp that is currently populated with early 1960s Siemens large halo getter e188cc (7308), which are great. Objective of the moonshot would be more of the same that the current tubes are delivering...if such is possible. Or, as any card carrying audiophile would espouse, something even better.
Thanks in advance for opinions, particularly from any audionaughts who have taken this particular journey.
