It runs 50% hotter than a 6SN7 does it not?

It has twice the plate dissipation, meaning it can handle twice the power, but the differences are more involved than that, mostly related to the two tubes' operating curves and "happy" bias points. The ECC32 is more picky about voltage and bias current to land in a linear operating area.

@JKDJedi - That’s why you don’t always buy your tubes off the bay. Tubedepot.com has them for 1/10 the price, and even then that’s too high for me, lol. 🤫

Let me just add that when properly biased, they are one of if not the best sounding dual triodes I have ever heard :)

And ach mein gott it's a lovely sound. After "Dear Prudence" I think I was convinced to come out and play.
