  Thank you.

 
I should mention that I have heard of 7N7s with a standard octal base - these should plug right into any 6SN7 socket with no problem.
 
All the 7N7s I have seen have a very different pin arrangement and need an adapter, but some might not.

Any impressions on the Grados RS1 (i or e) and the WA5?
 
Enjoyed the Grados sr325i for a few years before upgrading to the HE500s and sometimes miss the sound.

Tony,
 
Tung Sols usually take forever to burn in, any chance you could post pics so we can have a look at the construction?

 
My camera work blows, but here you go:
 

 

Looks like you use a flash try without the flash less glare just my .02cents

Tried that - get a dark mess without any visible detail. My camera skills sit somewhere between "duffus" and "moron".

They look okay to me. They show everything of interest.

OK, thank you again for the information.

Isn't it amazing that no matter what other HP's people have, they always enjoy the sound of their Grados!

Magic mushrooms were probably involved.

Sorry wasnt my intent

I found the only real solution to decent indoor photography was a DLSR. You do have $1000 burning a hole in your pocket I hope?

Not necessary at all - I was totally joking. I was hoping the smiley face would convey that, but things sometimes don't translate well in email - that's my bad, not yours.

If I did it would have "Elrog 300B" written on it.

I'm Australian - you would have to shout obscenities at me for quite some time for me to take offence (and even then I would have some doubts about it)
