Well they're 6922's with an adapted ass to fit this Schiit.
I use the ifi tubes.
They don't sell them anymore but after lots of trials these are the ones that fit my ears best.
Be aware however that I don't know anything at all about valves/tubes.

I believe tubes in the picture you shared, if I am reading them correctly, are 5670. That thing on the bottom is the adapter that makes them work as 6922.
I believe the one @Paladin79 linked to the tubes without the adapters.
Oh no. Even 13 years tends to be extreme with Norse Forrest Cats.
Her spouse (Amadeus off course) died when he was just 10 years old.
She will be 21 in February next year.
She is eating double she did a few days ago and much more active.
Keeping her as well fed as possible is an ongoing struggle since my wife died.
Every kind of food she likes and a mountain of snacks are always on hand in abundance.
Sorry about your loss. I know what it means.
Sorry about your loss, and my condolences.
I hope Constanza will be with you for a long time to come!
If I understand this correctly, my condolences to you also. Sadly, I have experienced this myself too and know something of about what it means as well.
Luckily, I also have a cat. She is only one third the age of Constanza but nonetheless she knows exactly what she wants and where she wants to be. Her name is Tonks (from a character in Harry Potter, of which my wife was a great fan).
And there the thread is back on topic again.
Cats.
IMHO, Mjolnir 2, amongst all Schiit, is in a class by itself, certainly with good, NOS bottles. It drives everything, with great authority, and enough clarity that it conveys convincingly exactly what it's given.
I continue to appreciate Valhalla 2, especially with 600 series Senns and NOS tubes, and a recent Jotunheim as well, but when I want the best quality attainable here, it's Mjolnir. Noms.
Now I know whom to go to for tube advice on the Mjolnir lol, and I saw elsewhere that 6sn7's with adapters were not a good fit for that amp.The MJ2 was my first Schiit purchase back in May 2016. Since then I've added a pile of Schiit to my collection and still, ever time I fire it up and use it in balanced mode with my HP's it puts a smile on my face. With 26 matched pairs of 6DJ8's, 7DJ8's, 6922's and 2 matched pair of the iFi 5670 that came with adapters I can roll till I'm ready for a padded cell. The Amperex JAN 7308 are especially tasty even compared to my more expensive Telefunken's.
I have both Freya and Mjolnir 2 and used as pre-amps.I own a Freya, Bifrost, and Lyr 2, and so I'm curious about the Mjolnir 2, but, really, the killer product that I want to buy from Schiit is a Freya+ plus Mjolnir's balanced HP output. Think of it like a tube Ragnarok in terms of quality, but as a pre-amp only ( and potentially with 2 x XLR). I know Mjolnir 2 can be used as a preamp, but obviously the Freya's flexibility makes it far more suited to being the hub of a system. Add in a quality headphone out and you've got something to build a complete 2 channel AND headphone system around.
Since the Freya only has 1 XLR out, and that's sent to my monoblock speaker amps, I can only send SE out to a headphone am. That's a bit of a bummer because I've got these balanced cables that came with my Clears and nothing balanced to use them with. So, either a built in headphone amp or, at least, a second XLR would be very welcome.
