Psvane CV181-T in Dehavilland Ultraverve?

Has anyone used the new Psvane CV181-T, which is a direct substitute for a 6SN7, in their Dehavilland Ultraverve? Impressions??

The PSvane cv181 reminds me why I love tubes.

Do you use the Psvane CV 181-T in an Ultraverve, or some other preamp?? Have you had any experience with the Sophia Electric 6sn7s?? Thanks.

Actually, I just replaced the Sophias which I liked for their even-handed sound with fine low bass and highs, but, when I put in the (new in box) Psvanes, I immediate liked them much better, with the vocals just so more realistic and a more natural image boundaries, the opposite of paper cutouts. And the sound staging was better, with a deeper field and an easier time finding centered images.
