    They sounded great but they wernt a big fan of 500V on the plates. Oh well. Gonna try some 6CA7s next.

    Got the tubes today and I'll install them tomorrow. Interestingly the getter deposit is on the bottom of the envelope and not the top.

    5150 Cabs. any good? worth me getting for practices?

    For 100 bones you wont do much better. You might get a beater 1960a for £150 off ebay but convincing people to ship them is a pain and also I dont know if T75s are really the best option for a 5150. I'd say buy it and if you dont like it then flip it on. You wont lose all that much dollar on it.

    I thought I'd take a spin on the sino 6L6GC's as from what I read they aint half bad. If they are shitty I can use them as test bench tubes so its no great loss. They'll still sound better than the totally spent shenguan EL34B-STR's that are in now i'm sure. Those tubes have seen some action!

    Yeah they are the black base model. I'm soon going to be restoring a bassman 100 that caught fire (hopefully just the screen resistors...) and I dont want to drop expensive tubes in for them to go pop if I fuck something up. If they're any good I'll stick some in my speed twin too and I dont...

    I've found a guy selling matched Shuguang 6L6GC (not the R revision but in the straight envelope, not coke) do you know if there is much difference?

    Sonter metal tunings?

    Neurosis do some stuff in E drop A. Goatsnake is unknown as they slowed the tape down a little in the master so its not actually possible to get that sound as lot of it comes from unnatural decay. Its loooow though. Dont try to sound like down. they are the diet coke of sludge. eyehategod...

    My limited budget and availability in the UK is probably going to sway me towards JJ. I can only find the sino's in coke envelopes and I really doubt they'll fit.

    Are those Shuguang's made in a 'coke' envelope? If so I've seen them for cheap but I was worried about the socket spacing in my speedtwin. They are preeeety close together. They be Shuguang EL34-B's

    Had a few bad experiences with JJ power tubes although I may give them another go if the talk is good again. Could just have been a bad batch I suppose. One failed on first power up and another went after about 5 hours, then when I had enough of them and pulled them one of the guide pins...

    So fair people of RT, what is your preferred 6L6GC? Its that time of year where my speedtwin decides that its had enough of the tubes that are in, currently some harma EL34s - not great but they were spare and I ruined my old 6L6s when the power fucked up at a gig... Previously I've done well...
