Hi RAT's!


It is a vacuum tube.


I have a pair of RCA in a 6SN7 circuit. Sounds great, maybe a little
slow on warm up ...


Anybody else tried these cheapies?


The cheapest tube is the one in-hand. I sent Ian eight of my spare
6SN7s, and have at least a dozen yet. It will be my children's
children worrying about running out.

if this is anything to go by, they may be your childrens' inheritance!

Over $100 a pop for 6SN7s, what is the world coming to?

Yes, I saw those yesterday when I was mooching. I dont see what is so
special about them. They are Russian and anyone would be mad to pay
that. I am not saying Russion valves are crap, the Pinnacle branded
6J5s I have are Russian and are supposed to be very good, but 100 odd
Dollars each, insanity.
