GEE- Ya mean tubes that were made back in 50's sound better than the junk that's being manufactured now? A statement like that is certain to get a LOT of people riled on this site. SURELY: It's just your imagination, or wishful thinking(because you spent so much on those NOS tubes)!! Actually: The GE 6550's were the tube of choice for the Premiers Eight and Twelve. If they were more readily available, I'm certain Messrs. Conrad and Johnson would still be supplying them in their amps(connoisseurs that they are). What NOS 6922's will you be experimenting with? Hopefully you will compliment those excellent amps and GE's with some Siemens CCa's? Enjoy your music!
