Schiit Saga which tubes to order?


I was thinking about ordering the Tung-sol 6sn7 and the LISST. Anyone heard the LISST?

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!
I bought a used quad set of RCA 6L6GC black plates for use in my Fender Twin. $75 per tube ($300 total). I consider this a good and fair deal. The US - made Black Plates are the ne plus ultra's of the 6L6's (for tone and longevity!).
