@milpai Thank you for your support of our product. I look forward to your review and feedback!

I will say that I am impressed with the Horizon series 12AU7. I was NOT expecting them to sound this good.

I purchased this set to save my NOS Mazdas. The Mazdas are amazing, but these are so good that I don't care about doing a comparison. I am in no rush to put the Mazdas back in the system and can rest easy that if something happens to these Psvanes, I have the Mazdas to go back to. I will say that they are indeed neutral compared to the ART series. In the initial hour, the bass seems a bit muted, but has opened up since. In fact I feel that the bass is more taut. And they do glow a bit from bottom up. Very pleasant when you look at them. The Mazdas glow very faintly compared to these Psvanes.

The biggest concern for me is - how long will these last. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Greetings - 

I posted another version of the questions below on another thread started by a Psvane employee posting as "Melody". I am reposting my questions here for your convenience. I have obtained answers to come of my questions so I have reduced the number of my questions.

Thank you for inviting comments and discussion regarding Psvane tubes.

Please answer the following questions:

1. Are non-conforming tubes destroyed at the factory?

2. Are some sellers authorized and others are not?

3. Are only some sellers trusted to be selling best-quality tubes? If so, who are those sellers?

4. Psvane has described differences in sound for the various "families" of Psvane tubes. Are these differences reflected by differences in specifications? If so, can you provide the specifications for the various varieties of Psvane tubes? For convenience, please use the 6SN7 family of tubes as your case-in-point.

Thank you , in advance, for answering the above questions clearly and directly, line by line.
