Saw this and was crushed by the test low! See 2 Heerlen codes others have a good chance in being Hamburg.

Got 100 hours on the CV455 and these are top notch tubes. Not sure how they would rank, but probably in the top 8. They sound a heck of a lot as the Footscray Square Getter CV4033. Haven't heard the CV4033 since I been burning in the CV455 yet.

Not that low. Avo's aren't the best testers for 12au7s either. Maybe I should post this after snagging them

Spooky night with the 455's. You wander out into that vast, magnificent soundstage and you find @Wes S already there………

FTFY (fixed this for you)…[Reg.TM, © bcowen: 2021].

Just giving credit where credit is due. Besides the bludgeoning, actual and rhetorical, of GE tubes with 2 by 4 s, the bcowen calling card on many Head-Fi threads IS the FTFY of a plenitude of posts. Whether it be the 6SN7 thread, DarkVoice thread, 6J5 thread, and others, the FTFY just shows up. It will probably be applied to this post …

Hey folks! I just listed a HOLY GRAIL pair of Valvo Hamburg ECC82 Long Plate Foil D Getter bottom codes DW K6R.

@TK16 I think you might be interested in these.

How are these in the warmth department in relation to the 56 square getter K62 and 56/57 45 degree d foil getter K62? May be interested if they are warmer.

@TK16 -- Too late. I snagged them!!







** Just kidding. They exceed my self-imposed per pair price limit for this week (so you better hurry).

They are warmer overall, and I think you would love them.

Went ahead a stole 1 of your pics as my new avatar. Seems there is a delay in the avatar taking effect, just tried changing it once and it took like 20 minutes.

Today's track share is a classic - taken from a spectacular album by Blackmill:

Love it!!!

Since I got a replacement 455 coming I chucked in my 56 SG CV4033 pair until my 6201 PW shows. The CV4033 SG and CV455 SG is so close in sound signature not going to buy either a backup set. The 455 sounds a bit warmer I think. Will have more later on.

ROFL!

It's totally not my fault that so many posts need fixing, but on the positive side it's a small number of usual suspects that require regular post-fixin'. Or when someone says "I LOVE GE tubes!" you know that fixing their posts is just a start...
