  Was it from Svetlana? He does not test for noise, got noisy 74`s from him, they were noisy in my dac but worked ok in the Lyr 2.

I bought a pair of tubes from Svetlana and one of them exploded in my Lyr2......
He did give me a refund though

Here is my matched pair NOS CCa collection:
 

 
I also have 3 matched pairs of NOS '75 Reflektor 6N23P SWGP Silver Shields (HG) tubes.
 
I think 7 pairs of fantastic tubes will have me in good shape for the foreseeable future!!

Damn nice collection!, I had 2 pair of them `75 Reflektors, but did not care for them much. I got 4 pair of CCa too, but 2 pair are Hollands, 2 Siemens.

I like the German CCa's the best. The Heerlen tubes sound great too but they are a bit too warm for my ears with my setup.

I personally think its more important to have a single tube match itself and the other tube can be a little off as long as that one is close to matching itself as well. Think of each tube as 2 in 1. It's a dual triode so there will be 2 results for 1

Hope a few got to read it before it's execution.  I know quite a few here are thinking about DAC upgrades.

Not me, my monarchy is a beast, a beast with 6922/7dj8 tubes.
Happy Mardi Gras to all of you where it is just Tuesday

Yeah like my Lite Dac 68, my favorite combo is Siemens CCa in the dac and PW in the amp. Best of both worlds.

Reflektor 74 Silvers, $59 OBO, looks like Rob from the 6922 shootout.
