Hope they work out for ya bro, you get the Tesla PW yet or is it in transit?True that. But for me, I have the AFO, Denon AH-D2000 which is highly modded without the Fostex treble, Elear, HD650 and both pairs of Meze’s so I’m in a different situation. I’m looking forward to seeing if I blew it or made a good choice with these tubes. Same with the PW Tesla.
Got no experience with your music and USA 7308's, but the Tung Sol 2C51 is better than the Heelen E188CC imo. The 6922/E88CC d getters are also fantastic, not at the price I linked, maybe 200ish or so.How do the Heerlen E188CC tubes stack up against the pricey German ones and US 7308s? Specifically for classical/acoustic music if it makes a difference.
Collectors got yr back, yo.Its not hoarding. Its collecting.

I recently sold a pair of Amperex (USA) 7308. Warm mids, relaxed top end, decent soundstage, but separation and holographic are a bit masked by the forward mids. They might sound good with HD800s, to balance them out, but might be too warm If paired with warm cans/chain.How do the Heerlen E188CC tubes stack up against the pricey German ones and US 7308s?

I'm a bit envious of your Schiit Pile, though, I must say

on a possibly related note, the '58 Foton 6N8S are sounding good after more than a year of collecting dust and having drinks spilled on them. Rolled them for a bit more burn-in, and as prep for comparing to the ribbed (? we shall see) '53s due in this week, unless Customs has impounded them.
My latest batch came in today. Now have '53, '54, and '55 rib plates, and '58, '59, '60, '61, and '64 without. One more shipment coming that's been sitting in the USPS Queens distribution center for a week now. All rib plates but not sure of year.
I'm sure glad I'm not one of those tube hoarders like TK.
Giving away tubes helps with the guilt.My latest batch came in today. Now have '53, '54, and '55 rib plates, and '58, '59, '60, '61, and '64 without. One more shipment coming that's been sitting in the USPS Queens distribution center for a week now. All rib plates but not sure of year.
