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,

I didn’t think that was an option.

I ordered a set of 4 from Linlai of China, & they told me they’re on lock down. They sent me an email yesterday stating that they would be coming from G/F. When I went to their web site (G/F) they stated they were out of stock, so that's why I ordered from Linlai themselves. I'm assuming they shipped to Canada before the lock down. your guess is as good as mine.... 

I ordered my Linlai's E-6sn7's from viva tubes.

The delivery was fast and have had zero issues.

 

My Linlai's match the 2nd photo and came via Don Sachs's vendor. Either the 1st pic shows the Chinese version or it's an earlier construction.  In fact, I now have 2 pairs, both match pic #2.
