Tubes/Thermionic Valves.. discuss them here

Yes, bingo those are the ones. Mine are slightly later years, mostly 68 and 69's. They are really not a triple mica but most call them that. They are actually mica - metal - metal - mica when looking close.

rabbit if you want to be amazed with tubes try these, they're cheap and good :

-6N2P-EV (ONLY 60s or 70s because they are triple mica and extremely well built, they're 6V heater but high gain like 12AX7, they sound great, better than 6N1P and 6N23P).

-6GU7 and 12BH7a they sound great too, some of them are difficult to plug on the ember socket so i've bought a socket saver (novib).

Yes Razr1275. I've read your writings on HF. You're one of the guys I trust with regards to opinions. I think you put out some good advice on the Ember too. Too many kids on there nowadays along with people with high opinions of themselves so I read with caution.

Aakshey, is it worth that money with the tax?

Ok, now this is a serious question.

I am interested in learning more about 6DJ8 and 6922 families.

I would like to know which brands in these families produce a bright or slightly bright sound. The remaining stuff doesn't matter. Just that I don't want warm at all. I prefer bright or slightly neutral to bright, but not warm.

I will test the stock tubes when they come. But I am also interested in knowing which brands in those families should I be interested in

Thank you

Aakshey

All of them will at least reach 50kHz flat, so they will sound equally 'bright', regardless of brand.
Many of the 'tube sound descriptions' are based on subjective found differences and descriptions of 'sound' in COMPLETELY different designs where they OPERATE differently.

Something like the 12AX7 (ECC83) will be rolled off in the highs and sound less bright just like other tubes in that family of tubes.
There are literally hundreds of tubes and an equal amount of 'sonic descriptions'.

In the Bravo Ocean it is NOT the tube that limits the highs (and thus does NOT sound neutral or bright) but the used MOSFET and design is the limiting factor.
The specs given by Bravo are blatant LIES


Before you ask all the questions again ....
Listen to the stock tube and if you feel the need for even more highs look elsewhere in the chain as another tube won't bring more highs.

IF you are serious about learning tube descriptions you will going to have to READ a lot on the numerous websites covering this subject.
Asking this question (over and over) is NOT going to give you a clear cut result or a list of 'tubes that meet your descriptions' and you may get different options that others may or may NOT agree with.

Asking these questions is simply a WASTE of time.

All tubes Jeremy provides are WELL SUITED for the task AND tested !

At the moment i tried various NOS 12AU7/ECC82, 12AU7WA, ECC81, 12AX7/ECC83, 6GU7, 12BH7a, 6N1P-Eb, 6N1P-Vi, 6N23P, 6N27P, 6N2P-Eb, ECC88, 6BQ7A/6BZ7 none of these tubes were faulty or unusable due to excessive microphonics or too noisy...

But i don't use problematics tubes, for example my 12AX7 was a SIEMENS Halske, not really a cheap recent 12AX7...

The 6BZ7 for example are a very good surprise, try a GENERAL ELECTRIC 6BZ7, really full sounding with plenty of meat, great bass, highs not rolled-off and wide soundstage, perhaps a lack in dynamics compared to long plates tubes (6GU7 and 12BH7a my favorites) but really an excellent tube for enjoy long listening sessions.
