I could never really get into the 6SN7s... I've always been a 6F8G man myself. What with their supple plates and voluptuous electrons... ohhhhh.
Why, just now I rolled in some Sylvania 6F8Gs. Going from Ken-Rad to RCA to Sylvania was quite a trip, but the Sylvanias may come out on top.
As a side note, one of the 'Sylvanias' is actually a Zenith (re-branded?). They appear to be nearly identical in construction, although the Sylvania has a taller and larger base. These also have painted glass (grey), with a mirror finish down by the base. They look very much like my Tung-Sols, from a glass standpoint.
I was thinking I'm a Brimar CV1988 man myself too until that small black expensive TS tubes show up...
