“Tube replacement for BAT VK-P10. Unit is 12 yrs old on original tubes. Started experiencing left channel loss of amplitude with distortion. Upscale recommended the Electro-Harmonix for BAT gear. I replaced all 8 of the 6922's and both 6SN7's with the same Electro-Harmonix Platinum grade. Problem fixed. Spinning vinyl of course, but it will be a while before they are broken in.”

“These tubes work well in my BAT VK-3xi. I purchased a number of matched Electro-Harmonix 6922 tubes from a popular auction site. The problem is nearly all are noisy to the point of hearing them at my listening position when muted. When purchased platinum grade from Upscale a black background. I would have saved myself money, frustration, and time by doing it right the first time by purchasing from Upscale who actually listen to the tube.”

“I've been using a pair of these somewhere for 15 years. Good for the price, they're brand new, a known-good quantity. Save your money, the gold pins have no advantage sonically. But you do get what you pay for. Having said that these are much better than the Sovteks I had originally. Kevin's summary of these types of tubes is accurate. The Nationals are 'relaxed' to a flaw. These EH wake up quite a bit from that, but they still have a somewhat reticent presence region. The type 3 are properly alive with a flat frequency balance, better dynamics and a cleaner presentation throughout. Don't know why anyone wouldn't want the latter. But as I said you get what you pay for. Compared to even mid-priced tubes, these are somewhat slow, grainy, tubbier bass, thicker mids. For nearly the same price, my choice is current-production JJ Teslas that seem to do everything well.”
