That is great! Let us know the result. The new tube will need 40-60 hours of play time. I am really interested in the big bottle cv181 6sn7 equivalent and how it will sound. The top plate tube hole will need to be expanded a bit using a simple step up drill bit. I bet this one tube ends up being very special. My audio buddy should be trying one today or tomorrow.
MHDT Orchid or Lampizator Amber 3?
I’m considering one of these. Please share your thoughts, especially if you’ve heard them. I will be streaming 70% and CD’s 30%
Jazz, R&B and classical in that order are my listening habits.
My room is 20x30 and very nice acoustics.
Current system:
Dali Epicon 8, Luxman 509X, PS Audio NuWave DSD, Cambridge CXC, Shunyata interconnects & Nordost speaker cable
Thank you!!!

rx8man You may be much more technically savvy than me, but I just looked up the specs on a 6SN7 tube and compared them to the 396A tube. Whereas the specs for a 6DJ8 appear to be pretty equivalent, unless I am reading things incorrectly (which could very well be the case!), the specs for the 6SN7 appear to be quite different. Maybe no damage to the dac would happen, but I wonder how those differences in specs will impact the sound. |
