I had about 4 6SN7 Sylvania Chrome Domes. All binned along with my Psvane T2 CV-181s, Shuguang BTs, Russian 6SN7s, Sophia 6SN7s, EH 6SN7s, Full Music 6SN7s and an assosrtment of other failed driver tube experiments. All crap compared to the 6F8G NUs and TS RPs. Nothing else I have tried measures up. I have some RCA 6SN7s and RCA 6F8Gs on hand in case of a truly desperate situation. Everything else went into the bin.
I have not heard the Brimar 6SN7s - they might be golden, I have no idea. So far the NUs and TS RPs are the only drivers I have heard that that make my amps sing.
Thinking of my WA5 and the impact of the various tubes - rectifier / driver / output is something like 30 / 40 / 30. The driver tubes make the biggest difference to the SQ, and often appear to get the least attention. Not sure that split is right - might be more like 25 / 50 / 25. The drivers are the peg that the SQ hangs from, at least for the WA5.
WA6 I would characterise as something like - rectifier / drivers in the ratio 40 / 60 or perhaps 30 / 70 for SQ impact.
None of this is exact, just making the point that drivers don't seem to get the lovin that they should.
