@jaymark, let the Linlai burn in for around 100 hours.
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes
I just placed an order for a pair of these for my Aric Audio Motherlode II. I’ve been chatting with a fellow that runs the E 6sn7 in his Don Sachs pre. He loves them, He says they make his NOS tubes sound thin and lifeless.
It will be a couple weeks until I receive them,and I was curious if anyone out in Agon land has tried these,and what are your impressions?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

I recently purchase 6 Tung-Sol Black Plates 6SN7 tubes for my Canary Audio Grand reference 300B mono amp. These are NOS tubes from the 50's. This amp also has 16 Western Electric 300B tubes so I am very particular about what goes in my system. |
Hey, I can confirm what others been saying in this thread. Tha Lin Lai E-6SN7 is really very interesting tube. I’m using it in Feliks Audio Euphoria and compared to the gold PsVane 6SN7, it’s quite a bit more expansive and bass is notably tighter. Those were 2 major difference that I noticed immediately. The PsVane tubes are great also, but different, so I think someone might prefer one over the other.

@bugredmachine, I have no firsthand experience with them. However,the gentleman that recommended the Elites, said he really didn’t care for the non-Elites. I believe he said they they were very lean,no body. But, we all hear differently. To my ears, I find the Elites top notch. Others may not care for them. I guess this was a long winded way of saying I don’t know.LOL He did,by my standards,make a great call on the Elites. Me personally,I’d probably pass on them. |
