I would trust you with two 58 melz solid plates one day but they are not for sale, only for your listening pleasure. They are close to the 63's, only slight differences, better high frequency response IMHO. Most of my listening is with the Incubus and it is made to let the 6sn7 shine. In one of my pre-amp tube setups there are 12 tubes involved, it is tough for me to differentiate as much in that setup.

Understood! That is one area I could hear that would better the 63. Just a little bit more twinkle on the top end......LOL

it is hard to explain, like the treble has no ceiling at all and just keeps drifting higher.

You have gotten lucky - I just bought two NOS NIB in original boxes from my friend in France.

Given the lockdown, I will only have them in hand in three weeks from now, and then send them to you as a present.

I fully expect to hear some impressions on how they sound in your Vali2 before you ship them off to Paladin - there's gotta be an adapter somewhere

lol sure there is, pentode, dual triode, practically the same thing. And filament current, pay no attention to that just keep a fire extinguisher close by.

Wait...I thought the dishwasher CMA12 was supposed to be delivered yesterday. Now *I'm* bummed out...

It's got delayed ! Now I can't wash my clothes until after the New Year. Don't cry for me Argentina (bcowen) and don't bummed out for me. The truth is I never left you. All through my wild days.

and the New Year's Eve is not today...

Thanks for coming in ODD. Just in the nick of time. Now I can leave.

It is New Year's Eve for me.

Oh well. Happy New Year, then!

Yeah, thanks for dropping by @Old Deaf Donkey . We need one of you old guys here to keep an eye on us other old guys here or trouble may brew. In fact, I'm brewing some Ethiopian Harrar right now which is quite tasty with a shot of Baileys. Actually, most anything is pretty tasty with a shot of Baileys...

And Happy New Year @UntilThen . You'll already have a hangover by the time we get started.

Hahaha. Happy New Year to you @bcowen and everyone here. 5 hours to go before 2021. It was nice meeting you. I'm drinking from the barrel now.

Not sure when the month officially ends on HeadFi's clock, but it's not looking promising for you right now. If you'd like to challenge this through the courts I understand, but if you want to go ahead and concede let me know when to send the carrier in to pick up my million GE tubes. I'm counting on those to stock me up with Christmas gifts for @Paladin79 for the next 50 years.

You have wayyyyy too much time on your hands but you have managed to stay out of trouble with your posts I imagine.

Would not be very difficult to develop a script to post messages, is there a prize besides GE tubes that would make it worth while?

Years ago in the days of pagers a peer walked away from a design session and would not listen to reason. I wrote a quick script that sent a message to her pager every 5 minutes - "Page 1 of 1000", etc. after 7 pages she asked me if she would be getting 1000 pages. "Yes, unless we sit down and discuss"

As my wife says, "never pi** of a programmer"

 

[bcowen]

...is there a prize besides GE tubes that would make it worth while?

No.

 

[Paladin79]

No.

I would do another GE tube challenge but that would be unfair to someone trying to pick that tube blind. It is not that easy.

OK, our turn in Europe. 4 1/2 hours left. Hitting the barrel now, too. Happy New Year to all!
