YOU can't wait....

 
Should be this week sometime. I just dropped a hint to the guy who's reviewing it that I may need it back shortly. 
 
I just handed the wife my HE-500's for a quick listen. She got the big grin and said "this is gorgeous, I'll never get you out of here now" (the computer room)

I just received Glenn's 6F8G adaptors, and man these Tung Sol round plate 6F8Gs sound darn good. My amp is turning into some Frankenstein amp though...

No, it's pronounced "Fronkensteen."

Hey there, I could only them on evilbay. vacuumtubes.net once advertised them for I think $60 a piece, but when I emailed them they were out of stock for some time. Oh well, time to give other 6F8Gs a try. Wallet status: not looking good.

My dilemma was finding maybe 5 pairs for sale but at the time, Glenn was down; had no one to make me adapters. So, I walked.

Well, he's back in action now.

But...but...I got no 6F8G glass. 

 Correction: No Tung-Sol BGRP! His OTL design calls for a single drive tube in my amp, so...

I have a pair of those but I have not tried them yet.
 
SO, there are a bunch of 6F8Gs on ebay now.  Several of them are of the TS BGRP variety.

Does any of you happen to have a good quality recording of this performance? Thx
 
Late night session going on:

I have several recordings of the 1812 Overture. The loudest is the 1812" Overture from Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. The most refined is the Georg Solti version.
