The NU black glass and earlier gray glass 6SN7GT sound different. And the round plate 6F8G sounds different than either of the 6SN7GTs. I wonder which of these the 12J5 is most similar too....

I do have the black glass 6SN7GT, the round plate 6F8G, and now the 12J5. Both the black glass 6SN7GT and the 12J5 have ladder style plates, but they are not identical in design. I did think they sounded pretty similar though, tonally. I'll have to get the 6F8G in the mix! I haven't listened to it in a while.

Need to find an open headphone for $100
I am selling an open headphone for just over $100, but shipping to this place you call "home" would kill it... :wink:

Thanks @2359glenn.

Congrats Chris. With the recent arrival of your VC's, and now the GOTL, I predict you will be getting nothing done for weeks (except for listening to great sounding music of course :)). I'm also interested to see how much self-control you have with not buying tubes. I made an attempt to be a responsible tube buyer when the GOTL showed up, but that all went out the window in about a week.

Not many make it out of this thread without many more tubes and a much thinner wallet :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Yes, that storage space you have there will definitely not be large enough :smile_phones:.
