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 Thank you for the  reassurance.  Hope I can start my journey on getting the Linlais fixed  effectively.  I have a local selling the same amptata sockets but gold plated. So am getting these in the link from him.

@lowrider57  By the way this Deoxit is meant for cleaning  tube pins? Just swipe pins nd plastic base and put it in or do they need some time to dry? No issues with the sockets?  Sorry, am new to this cleaning agent.

I used Deoxit D5. It's for cleaning all metal contacts. Spray on metal conductors and wipe off the tarnish or crud. Or spray on a soft cloth and wipe down conductors.

Don't spray directly into tube sockets on component.
