I received the adapters today and the depth of the adapters are very close. I am not feeling a solid mechanical connection when I plug in the adapters. I have emailed Glenn and have asked his opinion.
So far I have only 4 hours on the Treasures. The sound bloated and is far worse than my DuMont fat bottle 6FD'7. I know more time is needed to settle in.
FYI for older WA6 owner looking to buy 6SN7 tube adapters, make sure that you let the maker know about the size of the small openings where the tubes fit in . They did not fit my amp and I am having to use socket savers under the adapters which I think is taking a lot of the increased audio qualities of the 6SN7s away. Right now they do not sound better than my fat bottle 6FD7 sylvanias and both pair of 6SN7s that I have are used so they should not need much burning.
I am waiting for Glenn to contact me to see what he can do , I am sure he will do his best to solve the issue , he is very professional and has great costumer service skills.
