@ram18, it depends on the lighting. Under direct lighting the coating on the bottom appears dark, but move it away from the light source and it becomes reflective.  I believe this is normal.

@ram18, I highly suggest serious burn in before any critical listening.  The darkness you hear is exactly what I heard,and what I was told to expect from the gentleman that recommended these.  I have been playing these every day. I think I’m somew...

@markusthenaimnut, I think those are really interesting points that you bring up. Other than my ears, I’m without any testing equipment.  I had an issue with some flaking of some cathode material in one tube,and after tapping a few times,this issu...

My packaging is identical to the tubes @pinwa received. I wonder if Linlai sells more tubes, having two different types of silk screening?  On a side note,my new pair are burning in nicely. They are definitely becoming more liquidy. New word?     ... 
How much faster of a sub is the REL T5X vs SVS SB12-NSD
A ton of rocks. Obviously.

Hi @ram18,  I keep the ceiling fan on,and I have a small computer fan I have aimed at the amp. It keeps the heat under control.      Ray

That’s great news @danmar123.  I'm really curious about your impressions.  I’ve got about 50 hrs on the new pair.  They are definitely starting to fill in.  I’m running them about 14 or so hours a day, minus last weekend.

@danmar123, that’s funny! I don’t care who you are!

@rah50, you bring up good points about fakes.  I am interested to hear impressions of any difference between the two. But,for now,the burn in continues. I am at 12 hrs. I won’t do any comparison listening until I at least reach the 100 hour mark. ...

@invalid, that is what I found,that is Linlai. I couldn’t find the connection to Linlai Global. That’s the reason I’m baffled.

@danmar123, no need to keep opinions to your self!  I’m getting confused all by myself! LOL!  It’s all about sharing findings and info.   
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes
@danmar123 , that’s what I noticed as well. I did a search on the company printed on the gift boxes I have.  The more I research, the more confusing.  I’m just going to enjoy the music at this point.  @xcool posted the answer,that there are two ve...

@lowrider57, that is absolutely correct. Horizontal labeling.  Yes, both sets ordered from amptata_audio.
