Hola folks!

Well , I'm 1 hour in on the 12a*7 hole , and
HO LEE SHEEEEEEEEET!

This family of tubes is CRIMINAL!

I'm on my first tube. THANK YOU TK! This is the TS vertical square getter. Me being a TS fanboy, I threw this tube in first. This seriously isn't happening! Forget everything folks! Just buy the 12a*7 adapter!
I know, it sounds repetitive. Theses tubes are lights out!

Where you at Billy? Get the adapters bro! Get the adapters!

I'll post more when the rest of my tubes get here. Thank you AC, TK , Kolkoo for investing your time and money on getting me to this point. I can't thank you guys enough!

I'm going to shamelessly plug (once) that I created a classified with some 6922 and 7dj8 tubes. I plan to add more tubes there as I finally got motivated to get rid of the tubes that never see any playtime (and they are a lot).
I think my prices are decent perhaps I'm too greedy here and there but I'm open for offers always especially from participants of this thread :)
I've started with somewhat rare tubes and there will be some different and cheaper kinds later. The link is in my signature.

I scanned through the wa2 rolling thread. Seems that some of the wa2 owners are rolling 6sn7's , with adapters. Those are definitely higher than 300ma tubes.

I know it's a scary situation man. I never got a definitive yes from ppl in pm. Mostly it was "It should be fine". I know my amp isn't as costly either. I sat on this adapter for weeks , with another tung-sol D getter and a rca cleartop. Yesterday was a nervous commitment to just go for it lol.
So.... I put the tube in the adapter and tossed it in the amp. My amp has a 20 second delay inside before the circuit activates. I turned on my amp and left the room , counted to 30 and came back and everything seemed good. Popped some tunes on and MIND=BLOWN! LOL.

I definitely understand the hesitation bro. At least you know that others are rolling 6sn7's, which are way higher ma than these 12a*7 tubes.

@billerb1 , think E188CC is 340ma from memory, you can run those 300ma tubes no problem. They might of told you were not compatible because the ECC81, 6201 won't work without an adapter? There is plenty in the 12AT7 family that should be fine at 300ma. Though the 12A*7 family tubes are way too tall with adapters to run in the dac.
Been rolling many different tubes in my dac as well, 6922 dac, running all 6922 variants, 396A, 5670,25C1, 6N2P, 6CC41, 6N3P without problem 2 years or so.

When I asked Woo about the 6sn7's way back when they immediately got back to me and said they were fine with an adapter. I think they got tired of me asking so many different times about different tube compatibilities that now they just might be giving an off-handed "NO" just to avoid the question or to try to sell me their over-priced mediocre 6922 tubes. As you all know, I sure ain't a techy so you can appreciate my dilemma.

Better jump on the 12AT7 bandwagon for Tung Sol thinking about getting another pair myself!

Just flick the power switch with a long broom handle from a safe distance on the first try, you know, just in case. :dt880smile:
