Seller accepted $157 USD offer on my 2nd set. Steal for good testing D getter 7316 pair.
That's a heck of a deal. He just gave me a deal when I cleaned him out of 7062 PWs Lol. I guess it helps to be a repeat customer!

1964 Radiotechnique Suresnes 5814 burning in. I'd say the're a cross between the best from Munchen with a bit more life, combined with a Tele smooth plate plus more depth. Excited to hear these after burn in.

*Edit I shouldn't make that statement about Munchen as I haven't heard the chrome plates yet.

The Schiit amps have far more more then my LP. This a has a very small clearance. Your talking millimetres vs inches.

TK is correct as I also have an LP (mind you the little bit of white you see are the top of Tubemonger socket savers)

Do you have a different impression of the tubes in the pic of the MJ2 that you had before?
They are quite good in the Lyr2 after 150 hours.

Actually haven’t listened too them for a few days, was just letting them burn-in. I was going to do twice the normal burn in time so 200hrs, I will listen tomorrow and post some updates

My pair is at 168 hours, 1 full week of non stop burn in, debating on whether to keep them or not.

[Just a quick blurb about getting good discounted products- now is a good time to look for HP/stereo gear at Demo prices.
AXPONA 2019 just ended last weekend, that is a big stereo show, but also has HP gear and HP manufacturers as well. Many manufacturers use NEW gear at these shows, but then have to sell them as used or demos per industry standard. Now is the time to strike for good clean discounted gear. Ive had a lot of success with this over the years. I track the trade shows and dates, then call or email the vendors like TODAY- a couple days after the show ends for deals, b/c they want to offload some of their stuff too. Here is the link of vendors from AXPONA:

For all of you that have 7316 (I bought mine from the ebay seller paxster37 as a few of us have), these are quite bass heavy. For some music this is great, for other music it can be a bit overwhelming. I know this could be partially from my setup, but does the bass relax after burn in?

Don't remember them as bass heavy, with a unique Heerlen sound sig, that does not confirm to any other Holland tubes I've tried. They are the most 3 dimensional tubes I have ever heard. Got my 2nd pair incoming soon. I can explain this better when I start the burn in process.

I don’t remember mine being bass heavy,(this might be partially setup dependent) they have good bass but not overwhelming or bloated, this is for the long plate D getter 7316 Beckman label. From another eBay seller total of 6 of those 7316 Beckman label tubes 2 pairs and 2 singles, I do have 1 pair incoming from the seller you got yours from they are Amperex PQ 7316 ECC186 label D getter believe are the short plate though, I’ll let you know if I notice this pair as being bass heavy.
