Schiit Saga which tubes to order?

With regard to Amperex Bugle Boys, they are one of the most counterfeited tubes. They’re found on Ebay.

I'm not saying yours were fakes, but don't trust Ebay.

Try the "Early Russian" from Upscale.  Only 5 bucks more than Tung-Sol.  That's what I'm using in my Freya.  Provides a very nice improvement over the stock tube and the Tung-Sol.

I appreciate the feedback. I’m trying to determine wether to buy the upgraded tube packages with my Saga; or just buy the stock tube that is included from Schiit for $349.00

Marco may be offering the best advice, early Russians have good sonics.
But if it was me, i would inquire which type of Tung-Sol they are offering. It should be an Oval-plate for a price that high. I have one from WWII era in my preamp and paid about $380. Outstanding tube.
A new production TS is inexpensive and isn't in the same league as NOS.

I suspect that some of these "NOS" 6SN7's (and others) may be used "pulls" in old boxes! Nothing wrong with used tubes that still have high cathode emission (70% +). They should be advertised as such and sold at a reasonable price! Certainly not for hundreds of dollars!
