Is the Linlai 6sl7 already available?
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,
Ray

@invalid, yes it is. Make sure you’re looking at the E-6SN7. It is their ELITE series. |
@laaudionut I haven’t tried the Shuguang Treasure 6SL7s yet, but I have tried the PsVane CV-181 (6SN7) TII which are very similar, if not identical to the ’guang Treasure CV-181. I can assuredly state that the Linlai Elite 6SN7s blow the TII 6SN7 Treasures out of the water. I don’t know if the SL7s will match up the same, but my gut says the Linlai’s are superior tubes. You can purchase Linlai from Grant Fidelity in Canada, or for quite a bit less from a reputable seller on eBay "kt88_6550" whom I’ve purchased from more than a few times with excellent service.

It seems the Elites have been flying under the radar for a while. I’m hoping durability matches their sonics. I haven’t seen much on long term reviews. @aricaudio, do you have any insight? |
I purchased some of the Linlai E-6SN7s from Mable Audio last year. They arrived really quickly and in good shape. http://www.mableaudio.com/en/productview.asp?sid=10229 |
