Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @ram18 Sounds like a plan. The Globals are very expensive, I'm looking forward to the comparative analysis of both tubes. I've given up on my conspiracy theories and believe you and the others are correct. No greymarket tubes, both Linlai types... | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @invalid I haven't read the full article yet, but the pic on top of page shows the Linlai (looks like E-6SN7) with logo and ridge on silver base. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @aricaudio I hope you've been following this thread to see our confusion regarding Linlai Global tubes for export. Can you tell us which tubes you have purchased and are using, vertical logo or horizontal Linlai branding? And if you're able to... | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @ram18 Yes, the sound is wonderful. You’re right, the Globals are much more expensive than from Chinese Ebay dealers. Grant Fidelity, $303 per pair. My pair was fairly priced at $190 USD but shipping to US was $60. So not so cheap. Another thin... | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @ram18 Everything in your link is the same as what I purchased. Horizontal lettering on glass, logo on base, same box with test results for 2 tubes. What's interesting is the cards are printed in Chinese. There's a red stamp (probably for QC) in... | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes That makes sense Dan. I'm extremely frustrated as I'm listening to these unknown tubes which sound fantastic. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Same box as mine. The question is, what box is Linlai direct and Grant Fidelity selling? | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes YES. To invalid. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes It bothers me that Linlai did not mention the horizontal branded tubes. They said Global have the vertical logo and domestic market is written in Chinese. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @danmar123 Also interesting that tubes on your link to factory have Linlai (TM), Trademark. My tubes with horizontal wording has (R), meaning registered. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Maybe they are grey market, all indications are they are meant to be sold to the West. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes Everything I've read indicates the tubes for domestic China has Chinese characters on the bottle. I don't believe the horizontal branded tubes are for the Chinese. They sound full and balanced. And everything is written in English. | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @rocray I'm so mixed up at this point. Just to confirm, you purchased from amptata_audio and the tubes have horizontal branding, yes? | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @xcool I've seen that page. It doesn't look complete because it says "more to come." | |
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes This is way too confusing. Authorised dealers such as Viva Tubes and Don Sachs's distributor only sell Linlai's with the horizontal lettering. Unfortunately, all of Don's pics show the Shunguang tubes. I can't believe that these horizontal branded... |
