Can you 168 owners give me an idea of what tubes you have used? I replaced the stock EH 6922 with Jan Philips. I like the Philips much better than the EH 6922's. Better mids and highs. Anyone try cryoed 6h23n-EB's? Thanks!
Not a question of authenticity only of manufacturer, I think many OEM's had tubes labeled with their brand name that were manufactured by the big names and there in lays the hunt!
Thank you everyone for your input! Unfortunately my tube rolling has come to a halt. My 168 just stopped working and is on its way to a repair facility. The last tubes I tried were Russian Rocket logo 6H23 from Upscale Audio. I thought they sounded great in the bass, ok in the mids but not much sparkle in the highs. When I get my unit back I will continue the tube rolling
Sorry to hear that, let us know what happened to your CDP and when you are up and running again!! As a side note from Tom_hankins experience I tried Bugle Boys in the S/E (my I/C are S/E) and Orange label A frames in the bal sockets, I'm extremly please with the sound!! thank you TH! Best of luck with your Ray. Sam
