Based upon Don Sach’s recommendation quoted by Whitestix above, I got Ray Reserve 6SN7s for my Valhalla integrated and immediately noticed more detail without any sharpness or glare or the expense of the lushness of tubes. These tubes are expensive and liable to get more expensive if tariffs come to be. There are Ray Select tubes that are about half or less than the Reserve but I haven’t heard them. I found them to be better than the Linlai tubes I had in place.

@vthokie83 I would definitely like to hear how the Ray Select tubes are as they are about 1/2 or so of the Reserve. I might replace power tubes with Select tubes if they are still better than most of what is out there. |
