So so close! Looking for the pinched waist versions of these. Thanks for the heads up @AuditoryCanvas
Anyone have any single tubes they may want to part with? Just snagged an
Ember V2 and don’t want to split up my current sets. It uses a lot of the same tubes the L2 uses. PM me if you have something descent you don’t need anymore.

I have a single Amperex D getter standard pins. I will have to get more details when I get home.

Give those 2 star Amperex E88CC a whirl, they will either be your favorite or 2nd favorite Holland tube, pitted right up against the PW pair I sold you. They are that good IMO.

I have an extra WE396A that I can shoot your way @koover

Cool. Let me know when you get a chance
These I got to think about. You’re taking about the post in the classifieds correct? Pricy at this moment. New amp, new Headphone.
I emailed Jeremy from Garage and he said this is one variant they’ve never tried in this amp. Don’t know if it’ll be compatible. If it needs an adapter, not sure which One I’d need.
Haha. Could be. I’ll also PM you when I get a chance.Damn, @koover about to end up with the best singles collection of all of us by the end of this week

@koover , yes talking about the pair in the FS/FT thread.

The WE396A is basically a 5670/2C51, so if it takes those, you'll be fine. Like the Schiit amps, you'd need the 5670 to 6922 adapters with them, but I'm assuming you already have some.
Yes, I have that adapter, but is it compatible with the Ember? I would think so if it already takes the 6922.
I was just surprised Jeremy from Garage 1217 couldn't give me an answer as they've never tried running with that tube in this amp.
I would assume my 6N3P, 6N3P-E and 6N3P-I would also work in this amp?
Here was his response
That is one of the few combos we have not tried so it falls into one of those - it should work with the proper adapter categories. With the 2c51 have micro small plates, I imagine it would be suceptible to noise, a lot more so than later dual triode designs with larger plates. Could be a fun adventure
So maybe he did answer as I'm going to go for it.

Koover, try it and see. Shouldn't hurt anything to try them.
My Budgie phono amp takes 6922's but no go with the 5670+adapters....they just made a buzzing and pulsating noise.

Looking at the spec, I'd think it would be fine with adapters, but given the list you can use, I'm not sure you need to worry about it
From the manual:
- 300mA to 1000mA heater current draw tubes can be used
- 6V and 12V miniature 9 pin heater voltage tubes can be used
