Recently came across an adapter to allow the use of two 2C22's in place of a 6SN7. A casual Google search turned up an Audioasylum posting touting these as very good. Has anyone tried a pair in a Glenn OTL?

We have talked about them before actually.
 
I have a similar adaptor and 7193 tubes but never tried them yet.

An L63 tube adapter to 6sn7 would be nice.  God knows the prices for British 6sn7 variants have skyrocked recently.

As the 6J5 and L63 have the same pin-out, this should work:

Thanks for the tip. A search for 7193 and 2C22 here and in the 6SN7 thread doesn't yield very much. It would appear that if anyone here has tried them, they haven't posted anything. So I will put this on my list of tubes that might be worth a try.

Despite having an estimated 90 days to work with, I'm trying to carve out space in the rack for Selah's sister. 

Though, I've a strong feeling I might need to just get a stand alone wooden stand for her.

Been a while since I have visited. First off I would like to again thank Glenn
for building me an amp that has destroyed any desire to look further. I listen
to it every day without issue. It is the first time in my audio history dating back
to the late 60's that I can listen to the music without thinking about highs, bass,
and all the rest of the stuff that goes with the search. Thank you Glenn.
And to all here that helped with my decision thank you.

Hello everyone,
 
I have just posted a review of Glenn's amplifier here: http://www.tweak-fi.com/apps/blog/show/42754587-building-a-reference-system-part-2-glenn-s-headphone-amplifier
 
The version of the amplifier I have is the one that allows the use of six-6BL7s as output tubes.
 
Below is a picture of the amplifier in my system:

 
 
The amplifier sounds fantastic. Thanks again Glenn for making such a terrific headphone amplifier!

  Great Review

 
Thanks for the kind words! I just hope it did justice to Glenn's fantastic amplifier.

Did you measure the Glenn amp?
