Says it's a Hybrid...

Looks like FET Transistors and Tubes.

Most Hybrids have tube input and SS output stage, this one says SS input and Tube output.

The best Jazz sound through Mazda 6N7G and Chatham 6AS7G. However, I cannot go loud, there's distortion or clipping. Average volume listening is least fatiguing

I'm in love with 6N7G sound for Jazz music. Mazda does not pair well with 5998 cause again, huge gain causes clipping in sound

to all the lucky ones

 
 

  Some time ago the idea was raised to replace the twin (parallel) triode 6N7G tube with two single triode 6C5G tubes analogues. That would require duo adapters, and was never tested. Reading the above, a single 6C5G could actually be a better approach: half the gain. Does this make sense? Anyone has two of these tubes already to try it out? The pinouts of 6N7G and 6C5G seem to be identical .

 
Even though I didn't hear the twin triode 6N7G yet, I still like to know if the single triode 6C5G would be usable alternative or not. Is there anyone knowledgeable enough willing to comment on that?

You would have to use (2) 6C5G's per 6SN7 socket, which of course, will require special adapters, already avail:

Guess I'm just showing off my ignorance here... The EL3N and C3G are also single triodes (better: pentodes run as triodes) and that does work. But perhaps here the adapters are doing the corrections to allow the use of a single triode as well?

Hearing it is even more impressive especially with the Stax 009 and 007 and the Yiggy dac but as I say I went home still happy with the sound from Elise.

Hi Everyone,

just got my shipment of EL3Ns from Peter at Acoustic Dimension. Really nice tubes in superb condition. The thing that struck me is the smell. Smells like the late 50s or sixties. There is that particular smell. These are very NOS and can only recommend them. Promt shipping, even if it took the carrier two days to finally ship it out of the shipping depot, but super quick processing, shipping out and packaging really is top notch.

Shame he only has ELN3s that are of interest.

Take Care,
WB

Congrats. Peter's price are still the cheapest and the tubes and boxes are brand new. 

 

[WB2016]

 
Yo, WB...top notch indeed - all you need now is an amp to put them in, lol!

  Let's hope it will be soon...

...

 


Yeah but the amp can be built the EL3Ns less so so better this way than having to track down some if Peter is out.

Cheers WB

Yup very pleased. Wonder how he got that many of them in such fine condition. Well it helps being in Holland I guess.

Cheers

Only one triode is needed per channel, so you would be correct. I believe it is possible to use just a single triode per socket in Elise. This is further evidenced by the guy (can't remember who it is now) who's running a single 6AS7G in Elise, and not two.

I've 4 more coming, making it 10. My 6xEL3N has more than 200 hours now easily and sounding amazing with Gershwin and Friends on Tidal now.
 
I remember Lukasz reaction when I showed him the photo of Elise with 6 EL3N. He goes WOW 

.
 
Elise has been with me 4 months now and I've not tire of listening to music with a great selection of tubes (it's a moot point debating what tubes sounds best in Elise because I think there are a great selection tubes that sounds wonderful) and all genre of music. I think the T1 helps greatly here. Perfect combo. HD800 will be too.
