PSVANE 6SN7-Hifi

So far i have no complaints :wink:

Before I list in the classifieds, I’m checking if there’s any interest in an Ember 2.1 with steel plates and a good deal of tubes. Located in the United States. Thanks!

Hello,

i'm about to buy a 6N6P tube for my Project Ember. Does anyone know what sound characteristic this tube has?
And btw could someone recommend me an inexpensive Tube which is on the warmer side?

thanks

For me ive found the GE JG 5814s to be the warmest ive come across yet

Second place might be RCA or GE 6sn7gtb

Have you found anything since?

If anyone has suggestions please chime in

Just put it back in service today. Hadn't used it in years because I got more expensive equipment, and was focused on details in the past but care less about that today (although still high up on my list) but felt like checking out my new Arya stealths on a tube and It's pleasant to go back and check it out. They really sound good with Tube amps, even if ember is technically hybrid. Arya's def like more power, so it's nice to get 1.4W out of this at Ember's low resistance setting @ Aryas's 32 ohms, the other headamps I use are all less. Makes a difference with bass reproduction especially.

Tube amps are just fun in general because of tube rolling, but I really think they're great with analytical dacs and bright leaning cans in general. They just warm em up a ton
