I know this is an old post but I stumbled on this recently and thought others might be considering these tubes. I'm using these in the Little Dot MK2, and they're good. Where other tubes I tried either had an anemic bass response, or exhibited slightly muddy or indistinct bass, these are spot-on: tight bass with authority, well balanced overall with clean and extended highs. Better than anything else I tried by far.....

I'm using the Little Dot as a preamp and for headphones - nice coloration for a variety of sources.

I use two GE JAN 5654W with adapter to substitute a 6922/6DJ8 (Tesla E88CC code 37), and they are good.
I think they have slightly more bass than Tesla. Just put them on today, will need more listening/burn in to be sure.

Considering the price, I think these tubes are of great value.
