No.

If you're looking for a bright/treble heavy sound, solid state is the way to go. That said, not all solid states are bright, and not all tubes are warm. Research reviews for sound signatures of the amps you're looking at, or better yet audition the gear first if you can. Make your decision based...

OK, well I got my Amperex Holland Bugle Boys in, and I almost feel like everything about them except for the soundstage compared to the 6N1P-EV are just less defined and rounded off. Hard to tell if a tube has soundstage and "OMG 3D HOLOGRAPHIX" with the HD600, but this tube does seem a bit...

Just threw in a pair of NOS Anod Factory 6N1P-EV. I'm not well versed in describing what I hear, but they are warmer than the stock GE 6BZ7, have tighter bass, and seem to hit the highs higher. They also don't glow as bright as the 6BZ7. I wonder if this is because they require quite a bit more...

I have been using my HD600 for a few months out of a Lyr with stock tubes and all I can say is absolutely love it. They are laid back in tonality, yet their detail is astonishing. It's literally euphoric to listen to them. I'm addicted :)

Anyone know if I got a good deal on these? Seems like there are a few different types of 6DJ8 Bugle Boys out there... I'm a bit of a noob and this was an impulse buy, lol.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/122517653949 Just bought these. Did I do good?

Um, it looks like a bunch of posts were just deleted from this thread. What?

This seems a bit cheap doesn't it? If you search PCC88 there's one right below it for twice the price. And this one has free shipping. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-exact-Match-1-pair-PHILIPS-PCC88-7DJ8-TUBE-similar-ECC88-6DJ8-/261180551334?hash=item3ccf92f0a6:g:hbMAAMXQBwlRNwFu

Sorry about that. Haven't gotten around to updating my sig yet. I thought you were assuming I had the Lyr 2. Either way, thanks for the reply as it will probably be helpful to someone who knows a little less than me (nothing). Though your extended ellipsis made you sound a bit harsh.

I have the Lyr 1......................

Does anyone know if this guy is a reputable seller? These are some possibly really good deals. Also, how do I tell if tubes are fake before buying, if at all possible?

Just bought those and the 6N1P-VI from tubes-store.com 3 and 2 dollars a piece, respectively.

Hi. Has anyone heard the 6N1P-EV Anod tubes?

I've been here since 2006... does that count? I hardly have posted. I must be the ultimate lurker.
