It's possible. I had already gotten rid of the tubes before I found that mod, so I don't have any first hand experience testing it with the EH tubes. If you want to try it I should have some extra good quality caps of the right size that I can give you.

Pm sent. Thanks a lot

Great, I just performed the hum mod on the DV, and now the GE 6SN7GTA's working perfectly without any hum!!! Hopefully this will mean that the 6SN7 EH will also work as well. Thanks a lot, Fitz, for your mod!!

any new news on the DV front with the k701s?

So.. i just spent $42 on a two pairs (quad) of Svetlana Winged C 6H13C / 6AS7G tubes and am planning on spending another $80 for a pair of Ken Rad 6SN7GT VT-231... it's a sad day for my wallet.......

$80.00 for a pair of Kenrad VT231's is pretty cheap I'd say. I paid $150.00 for my NOS Black glass matched pair.

Let me chime in here as well. For those of you who are a little bit conscious of mindless spending on NOS tubes, you should do the Fitz mod, and get the Electro-Harmonix 6SN7s. They are really great for the price, not to mention that they are new stocks, meaning they will never be price-gouged.

Hey was that a jab?

I've done a lot of things mindlessly, but spending doesn't fall into that category.

No kidding, he won't even pay for the hotel room himself. Cheap person.

Forget your credit card one time and they never let you forget it!

Lol, that was totally unintended. I was simply making a general statement about the current skyrocketing prices of NOS 6SN7s. I myself have laid down a handsome amount over them

Doesn't have to be expensive. My preferred one was the grey glass RCA 6SN7GT, which can usually be had for about the same price as the Electro-Harmonix.

Actually if you have been following the recent 'bay prices of the grey glass, they are getting quite expensive.

Just gotta know how to hunt.
