Hi, this is my first post.
Thanks to this forum I'm a happy owner of a nice Darkvoice 336SE and the marvelous headphones Sennheiser HD800.
And with the Darkvoice came the tube rolling! ... There are tons of 6SN7 and 6AS7 in the world!!
My 6AS7 type collection includes RCA 6AS7G black plates, Philips 6AS7G gray plates, Svetlana 6N13S, GE 6080WA, GE 6AS7GA, GE 5998A and a strange 6AS7G branded Marshall Electronics with 5998's plates (see photos).
I did a lot of research in internet but I didn't find anything like that. It seems a 6520, but the writings state 6AS7G.
Indeed the sound with the Marshall is pretty better than with the others. Wider headstage, deeper bass, wonderful midrange.
What do you think about it?
Now my Darkvoice has the Marshall 6AS7G paired with JAN-CHY CBS 5692 or alternatively a Tung-Sol VT231 round plates as driver.
I'm very happy with that.
