I recommend the Shuguang Treasure CV181-T/6SN7.
I use them in my Don Sachs preamp. Lot's of resolution top to bottom, meaty and musical...it’s also quiet and reliable. I think it looks great too.
But don’t take my word for it. Don Sachs has every holy grail version of the 6SN7 tube and he says this one kills every one of them.
Apparently the newer Shuguang WE6SN7 is a little bit better. I have listened to this one too but not long enough to hear the difference. It sounded just as good to me. It is a bigger tube and may not fit in all applications.
