6L6 tube?

Never mind I figured it out myself. The 6NC3 is a Russian tube that can be used as a 6L6. Except the " N " is actually a letter/symbol in the Russian language that we don't have on our keybaord.

In case anyone has bothered to read this thread. Now you know.......

Kt 88, are you going to try those Russian valves (6NC3)? If so, I'd love to hear your findings. I run kt-88's most of the time, sometimes el-34's, but I'm interested in trying the 6l6 or variants there of.

I have a dozen used 6NC3s if anyone is interested in trying
them.

$50. + shipping

Creeper,

You beat me too those tubes! Let me know what you think of them.

Kt 88,
I ran those 6nc3's last night. My friends assesment of the 6l6 versus el34 is on the money. The 6nc3's are very musical. They are not the best at retrieving details (micro-dynamics) nor the lowest octaves and have a slight mid-bass boom. However, the way they present female vocals is awesome, similar to an el-34's presentation with syrup on top. I listened to Diana Krall, Cassandra Wilson and Lisa Ekdahl and was impressed. I'm going to run them for a little while, but plan on going back to my Golden Dragon kt-88's (they're more my cup of tea).
