Psvane CV181-T in Dehavilland Ultraverve?


Has anyone used the new Psvane CV181-T, which is a direct substitute for a 6SN7, in their Dehavilland Ultraverve? Impressions??

I don't know about your amp, but I went thru a lot of 6ns7s,
vintage and new production (all the big NOS and other names)
and the Psvane is my pick of the litter, w/ wonderful
fleshed out mids, having all the best qualities that
distinguish tubes from solid state.
The PSvane cv181 reminds me why I love tubes.
I use and Apex Pinnacle as a preamp and headphone amp.
Actually, I just replaced the Sophias which I liked for their even-handed sound with fine low bass and highs, but, when I put in the (new in box) Psvanes, I immediate liked them much better, with the vocals just so more realistic and a more natural image boundaries, the opposite of paper cutouts.
And the sound staging was better, with a deeper field and an easier time finding centered images.
Actually, I just let them play a half hour before I heard what I heard. A day later they sound just as good so far.
