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,

@bugredmachine, please excuse my lack of technical knowledge,I concede that most here forgot more than I know. That being said,let me throw something crazy out there. Is it possible that this tube in your room is acting like some sort of antenna? Is it possibly picking up some radio or electronic interference?  

From what I observed,these tubes took at least 50 hours to start to open up. These were kind of impact free on all levels at first. After having well over 200 hours at this point,these are very full frequency tubes in my system,  

@rocray , the reason I'm asking is because of how the tubes make my Orthofon sing. I ordered a SME spacer for my Hana ML. which I will alternate on my TT. I WILL order 2 set's soon, just would have to get the info from @aldnorab for the socket board.

@bugredmachine 

Your tubes are defective, no new tube should produce the noise you're experiencing. Give up on them and return.
