| Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes @lowrider57 Thanks for your kind word.Overall TS bgrp is the best tube but law of diminishing return apply too heavy here.I have 6 more sets of 6sn7 Nos tubes for shootout including Melz 1578 metal base coming from Ukraina. | |
| Shootout of Nos 6sn7 tubes I paid 575$ to get TS bgrp.I could get four pairs of each RCA, KR, RT, Syl vt 231 at total of 500$.It is much better to have four of kind with different flavor than over hyped TS bgrp. | |
