Concur on the 6N1P-EV (Cyr: 6Н1П-ЕВ) rating of 600 mA @ 6.3 VDC. The 6N6P (Cyr: 6Н6П) has a heater current of ~800 mA @ 6.3 VDC.

The Russian spec sheets I have say 750mA for 6N6P. I haven't measured for accuracy.

Who was after a tube bible?

Tonight's Jazz music recommendation...

(Taking a trip back to 1985.)

They were on the GRP label too.. another label with great production.

Ok, that math seems to jive better with the values on this handy chart I gleaned earlier in this thread.

"...jiBe...". "jive" = foolish or deceptive talk. Like "You're jivin' me, man." "jibe" = to be in accord, which is what is meant here.

Ok. Vali 3… Keeping in mind hat I have 2 and 2++. And I kinda beat some folks up who were saying that the only change they saw was the 100 Volt tube rail. And I figured that if Jason was going to call it a 3, it had to have more chops and changes than that. And to my ears, it is indeed more than that.

Mine arrived today, so I’m currently in hour 4 of listening (because bloody work!), with the stock 6N3P. Haven’t gotten to the 396A or the various other 6N3P or 5670s I have. I. Am. Gobsmacked. This is quite the improvement, and i’m loving it. Detail uis just pouring out of this thing. Evelyn Glennie’s percussion can be overly dramatic or terribly subtle in equal measure, but I’m hearing the tiny stuff and loving it.

Thanks for MORE amazing gear. For (in my case p, 159usd). Are we lucky or what?

I didn't need to read this. Now I have to keep telling myself that my Vali 2++ is good enough over and over again!

If one wants to Jibe with us, one must not Jive with us…

Well, if you're going to dip into the black label, @Paladin79 then I figured it is time to finish this project. Kudos and thank you for helping out the man cave! Outstanding. I think the glencairn hangers really finish it...

Excellent and you even got the oak plugs in place! A tricky build but it appears to work.

The bottle spacing and height allowance seems about right, you just need more horse bottle stoppers. You can be truly happy when working toward a goal and getting those eight bottles is going to be pleasurable.

and... jibe...
A jibe is a downwind turn, the mainsail is on the leeward side of the boat, and the tiller moves in the opposite direction that you want to turn.

Now I can't get this out of my head...

"So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the main sail sets
Call for the captain ashore
Let me go home
Let me go home
I wanna go home, yeah, yeah
Well, I feel so broke up
I wanna go home."

I give.... I give already. I've ordered a Vali 3. The spouse and grandkids are wailing that I've stepped on to the slippery slope that will impoverish them. Now whenever I'm on the computer they want to know if I'm reading Head-fi tube propaganda again. Sigh........

I've made a spreadsheet that has more compatible tubes listed. It's "dynamic", so you can add more tubes as you find them:

If I had a like button I would like this. Thank you!

I used this often to demo gear with in my salesman days. A marvelous album.

Thanks. Now the rest of us can't either.
