Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

@jb77 made the mistake of asking my opinion on a couple sets of tubes, after about 20 pairs of tubes and a new MJ2 he wound up here.
Where are you at bro reading the thread? If you go back about another year from where you started, you will be at the 396A,2C51, 5670 revolution. Highlights from that are the Foton and Reflektor 6N3P 2x and 3x mica, Western Electric 396A, TS 2C51, Tesla 6CC41 D getters. If you see any 50's Tesla 6CC41 D getters grab them. These are as good or bit better than the Foton 6N3P. Tesla 6CC41 and Russian 6N2P do not need an adapter. Though I did not like the 6N2P nearly as much as the 6N3P.

You audio tube pusher. You opened him up with gateway tubes such as 6N3P / 396A and now that he's had a taste he'll probably move on to harder stuff like the ECC82 / 6C8Gs. Soon he'll be out on the streets asking someone for just a small hit of Deoxit pin cleaner.

You bad man.

Too late on the ECC82, think he has more than I do, that fukcr turned me onto the 7316 D-getter and Brimar 12AU7 square getter. Thanks for that.

Does that Deoxit work? , think I need a years worth of doses in 1 huge needle.

I'm just getting started with this tube type. I'm on page 1252 now. There is talk of these, but nothing on year/label differences yet. For the price, I bought two different pairs.

You bought 2 pair from the eBay or Etsy seller?

Gotcha. I recently bought a pair of the RCA 12AU7 Clear-tops from the Etsy guy.
They Measured well, and I’ve listenend a few hours to them.
Just simple, straightforward tube with a little extra emphasis on higher and lower frequencies... in a good way.

I commend you for reading through the thread bro, very few people take that advice to heart, where did you start? 6N3P, 396A, 2C51 talk was roughly a year iirc before the 12AT7, 12AU7 talk starting August last year. Maybe summer 2017? Or was it 2016, long time ago.
