Linlai E 6sn7 tubes

@jayctoy I been buying from Viva for years, that's why I went & purchased the 6sn7 from them. The tubes they sent me, did not look, or have the same sound signature like the one's from Grant Fidelity or China. ''First hand experience''. Viva received them today & refunded my monies in full. I'm sure I'll be dealing with them again, unless I'm on their BLACK LIST....

Yours is a difficult situation to figure out. Could your tubes have been for the Chinese market, or grey market US? We'll probably never know. 

@lowrider57 the tubes I had were from ''bugredmachine''. I tested them for him. If you go back to one of my posts, I said, they made my Ortho Black open up. If I remember correct, they where from Linlai. Hopefully I'll receive my tubes in a few weeks..... Any day now, any day!

I remember you testing his tubes.

But this order was yours, yes?

Yes Sir. They came from Viva.
