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,

I contacted Don Sachs when Shuguang WE6SN7’s became unavailable. He’s using Linlai now and says they’re the best he’s found to use in his designs.

@aricaudio, that is exactly the way these tubes were described to me. I’m running KenRad vt 231 dark glass now,and they are awesome. I was told”wait till the Linlai’s burn in”.

@lowrider57,the gentleman that recommended the Linlai’s also runs a Don Sachs pre. He said they are very close to the Shuguangs. 
 

@debjit_g , thank you for the feedback. 

Can't help with the 6sn7, but Linlai Elite 101D solid plates are best 101d out there. Good to hear there may be new 6sn7 to challenge NOS. At some point NOS tubes will cease to exist, we'll need new quality tubes to carry on.
