I have used the Balancing Act for sometime and is now enjoying the tube rolling.
I was proposed the Philips-Pope 6sn7 but the the price is high for a used one
I wonder that is it the same as Philip-MWT 6SN7. The seller as well as upscaleaudio
mention that it is the best. So what should I do, anyone has used the Philips-Pope 6sN7
I also used the Balancing Act as a preamplifier and found
that the preamplifier function i excellent preamplifier. I used it to tame the bright
edge and make the midrange of the Stax SR009 full, rich and sweet flowing. I used
the GEC B65 and National Union black glass 6sn7 to do the job. Other 6SN7 is very good too.
For me I found that I like several 6SN7's : for the warm full sound I prefer the ECC32,
GEC B65, ECC33, and National union. For the audiophile music I use the Tungsol black glass
round plate, Telefunken 6sn7wgta and Swedish standard, SICTE Fivre. For rock or
pop music I will use Kenrad , Sylvania metal base or National Union
I also found that the Mullard 6SN7, Tungsram and Brimar long bottle is very good too. Seems
like I prefer long bottle Brimar more than the CV1988
I am now trying to use 68FG's but I have no experience can someone suggest which one
should I get? I have tried some and prefer the National Union and Raytheon.
Can 7n7 be used to , if so which one should I try?
I don't know much about tubes so I cannot identify some of them, I have seen long bottle RCA
Westinghouse and Tungsol 6SN7GTB, are they good too?
Thanks everyone
