Using in a brand new Decware ZRock3 after I stupidly broke the tube it shipped with :( No problem, sounding great with the help of the pros at Upscale Audio. Let me also take a second to mention the customer service and support I have experienced over the years at UA - it's absolutely top-notch. Friendly, knowledgeable, super quick responses to pre-sales inquiries and housekeeping issues like when their customer (me) keys in the wrong address. I'll be back!

Still in the break-in period so I'm expecting them to open up and get sweeter as they come along but right out of the box, they sound very nice.

I wrote a review after 25 hours which you did not print.As i said, so far the silence is impressive, vocals are disappointing[though this may be too soon for an accurate evaluation, as I have plans for a 50 hour review.]Classical recordings are frustratingly varied in quality.It's difficult to nail down the fault for good and poor ones:: the recording engineer or the tubes. I think it's the engineer in most cases.But I do find transparency improved.

Bought as a less expensive backup to Brimars. Reall like the cooler crisp quiet sound of the GEs
