Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
Thank you much for clarifying this Gibosi! I guess I will use my PSVane 6SN7 for my Senns, and replace my tired 6H30Pi with some 6N6P-ir when I want to use my AKGs. I will try to roll some other 6SN7 too, just to find out if this makes any differences. I just like the look (and sound as...- gulakpi

Little Dot Tube Amps: Vacuum Tube Rolling Guide
Thank you Iglions and Scutey, My Mk 4 came with a pair of EH 6H30Pi. I've been rolling many driver tubes as suggested on this thread and have been enjoying the process! For power tubes, I only have the (stock) 6H30Pi and 2 pairs of 6SN7 I have on hand. One pair is the PSVane UK-6SN7 and...- gulakpi

Hello Scutey, From the pictures you posted, you've been using 6SN7 as power tubes on your LD. I'm also using a pair of PSvane 6SN7UK too. Will you share your experience with your 6SN7 rolling?- gulakpi

From what I see, this new MK3SE amp uses 6DJ8 as drivers, and has a full balanced discrete transistor power stage. It is, in my opinion, it is closer to the LD Mk8, but at a lower price, more than the Mk3. The only reason for naming this as the Mk3SE, is probably the aesthetic and size. It...- gulakpi

Little Dot MKIII Tube Rolling
I have to add that the 6SN7 (on adapters) really shines on my HD650. It is silky smooth in the midrange and bass, and "look" more interesting as well! However, you can hear noticeable distortions when you use with low-Z (<100 ohm) headphones. In that respect, the 6N6P/6H30P family is a...- gulakpi

I will work on the adapters as soon as the materials come in. I have built the C3g adapters before and would like to work on the 6DJ8 now, and will post photos when it is done! I have a few used Siemens and Russian ECC88/6922 on hand. Are there any inexpensive (U$15-50 each) 6DJ8 you folks...- gulakpi

Hi Mikelap, thank you! You are helpful all the time! The setup is elegant, but probably beyond my skills in DIY plumbing ! Quite a bit of precision work there with the brass tubing there, which I'm not too confident! Haha!- gulakpi
