If you are lucky enough or have the money to buy this tube, you will be rewarded with the best sonics of all 6sn7 types this includes the famed three hole "bad boys", which are super preformers in there own rights. but these (the ctl's) have the most airy highs and the tightest lowest lows. Its to bad they sell so high, almost out of reach sometimes 300.00 a tube. and they tend to be a little microphonic. as long as you don't beat on your preamp you will be in audiofile heaven.

These 6sn7 were noisier that my father's old 1972 FORD PINTO. ALL VIBRATION AND DISTORTION. TO BE FAIR ONLY ONLY TUBE WAS BAD BUT IT ONLY TAKES ONE TO SCREW UP A MATCHED PAIR.

Tung Sol 6SN7GT mouse ears impressed with their clarity, detailed and airy presentation. I find it a very good driver tube paired with a Tung Sol 5998 on a Darkvoice 336se. It sounds great on Elise by Feliks Audio too. Soundstage is good. Some tubes sound warm and dark but the mouse ears are clear and breezy. I wouldn't call them bright but it is as clear as a summer's day. Great with any genres of music but I especially love it with Jazz and vocals.

The Tung-sol 6SN7 round plate tubes are not dramatically better then everything out there, BUT, they are better in every single area of sound, meaning balanced, 3D, sweet, detailed, not harsh, good bass etc. It is just that if you want a bit more of everything, and can spend the money, these are the ones to get. The only ones I like as much are the 5 hole Russian ones, but their sound is a bit more forward and bit more bright if that is what you like.

I tried a few tubes, and thought that the Sylvania VT-231 was the best until I tried a set of these!! Totally outperforms them, especially in the highs, and more even frequency response. - Great tubes!
