My pre runs two 6SN7’s or two 6SL7’s, the separate power supply runs two OD3’s,
and a 5U4,5U4G,or 5U4GB. Aric designs his preamps to be very tube friendly. I hope this helps @lowrider57.
Linlai E 6sn7 tubes
I just placed an order for a pair of these for my Aric Audio Motherlode II. I’ve been chatting with a fellow that runs the E 6sn7 in his Don Sachs pre. He loves them, He says they make his NOS tubes sound thin and lifeless.
It will be a couple weeks until I receive them,and I was curious if anyone out in Agon land has tried these,and what are your impressions?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

@lowrider57, It probably doesn’t make sense, but I’ll probably do it anyway. I run some low gain amps, sometimes I like to try a tube that is capable of a little added gain. With my limited experience,I’ve noticed that 6SL7 also provides a different sonic signature. I’m not 100% sold on the 6SL7 Elite, for the fact I’m still very curious about the upcoming Western Electric 6SN7. The gentleman over at SH forum has been testing a pair,and speaks very highly of them. He was not at liberty to discuss price point,but he did say they would be releasing them in September. That’s a long time to wait…….. |
