6DJ8 vs. 6922?


Alright tube aficionados, are 6DJ8 and 6922 tubes inter-changeable? I would ask Roger Modjeski or Tim de Paravicini, but they're both dead.

Anyone care to name their favorites of each tube, for use in phono and/or line stage pre-amps?

the first thing to read in learning about the 6DJ8 family is brent jessee's 6DJ8 page. 

someone else posted it. 

also, lots of people here are quick to offer misinformation. its often swift and immediate. its worse on facebook groups.

learning the 6DJ8 family begins with familiarizing yourself with this information here. its not entirely correct, but its the best out there. 

@oddiofyl e6922 isnt ruggediszed, but it is a better 6DJ8 several higher performance features including longer life. there are some in the 6DJ8 family that are either ruggedized or selected for ruggedness (tougher physical construction) like cv2492 (a version of the 6922 IIRC) )and, IIRC, a versoin of the soviet counterpart. 6n23p.
