Thought I'd post a quick update to my tube journey with the WA7tp and LCD-Xs.......
Kyle - outstanding write-up
Very thorough and detailed and some really interesting perspectives on all those great tubes.
Also interesting to hear a preference for the Sovteks over the EH-Gold-pins - I think you are in a great position given the price-difference. I can see where you're coming from with them offering a slightly juicier presentation. If you ever find yourself wanting a spare-pair you could always give the NOS-Reflektor 6C45s a go too. There are some varying opinions on whether they are different from the Sovteks but you can often get them as cheaply if not cheaper than the Sovteks as long as you don't mind a bit of a wait since most stock is in Russia or Ukraine.
Definitely do pop back in and update us with your thoughts on the CBS Hytron 5814 - I hope they are everything you want them to be! If you can post a pic or two of them with your impressions that would be excellent as there are some variations in the construction and labelling of these - though all the ones I have listened to were very good
