PSVANE tubes, are they good?

Hello to all forum members. Here I am again looking for your advice.
I'm buying a Yaqin SD-CD3 tube buffer to put it between an Oppo BDP-93 and a Pioneer SC-LX76 A/V receiver. Yes, I know this kind of stuff are not necessary and what they do most of the time is color the sound, but I'm buying it anyway.
The thing is that the stock tubes that come from factory are garbage so I'll change the two 6SN7 as soon as it arrives.
What do you think of Psvane tubes? Are they really good or they just charge extra for a fancy finished product.
Thanks in advance.

 

Really good.

 

Indeed!

 

Very good tube but not sure they're worth their price.

 

IMHO, in my setup they are easily the best sounding current 6SN7's. You might do better with an NOS tube, but that would probably cost even more.

 

I was very happy with the 12axy's I was using in my Project phonostage!! Worth every penny and more.

 

Does anybody have any experience with the Psvane "Phillips Holland replica" EL34?

I don't really care how close they come to the sound of Dutch Mullards, more just if they're good sounding tubes for the price or not.

 

Easily the cheapest and probably best solution is to buy the NOS Sylvania 7N7 tube from jacmusic.com. It is a dirt cheap and really great sounding tube, and it is a electrically fully equivalent tube to the 6SN7, so all you need is to buy a converter socket with it. Which Jac also sells for a few Euros.

I have bought a stash to last me a lifetime, so I'm passing on this tip whenever I have the chance

You need to scroll down a bit.

 

I've been offered a pair of NOS 6NS7 General Electric made in Canada, I think I should go for the GE's instead of the Psvanes. What do you think?

 

They sound good, but longevity is questionable, from my experience.

 

Those Psvane 6SN7 look pretty cool. I am not sure they would fit on my Modwright Oppo. I just figured it out. They will not fit. Those suckers are over two inches wide.

 

That is my fear with the Yaqin SD-CD3 and the Psvanes, I'm not sure if they will fit.

 

The are a little over two inches wide.

 

Thank you. Problem is I don't have the Yaqin SD-CD3 yet as I still have to order it, so I can't measure if they fit or not. I'll ask the Yaqin's seller.

 

I've been using them for over a year Way better than Sophias.

 

How did you fit them?

 

They are about the same dimensions as the Sophias, just a smidgen taller. It is not a tight fit.

 

Are you talking about these??? 1. Treasure Globe 6SN7-SE (pair, GF Limited Special Edition)

 

I would go with the 6CA7. Very close to the sweet mids of the EL34, but with more bottom end.

 

Sorry, no; these

CV181-TII aka 6SN7 (pair or single)

 

Yes. They sound very good with a euphoric sensibility. Unfortunately i had a tube die after 3 months. I'm using Gold Lion KT77's now and i actually prefer them to the Psvanes.

 

I had some 12AX7s and thought they were harsh.

 

Bought a pair of 12au7's for a Bottlehead Foreplay. One of them was so microphonic I stuck them both back in their oddly ornamental box and haven't taken them out in years. Was not overly impressed with the sound.

 

I don't know what to think about the Psvanes, from one side, sound seems to be very good. On the other, there are people who doesn't and there's the working like issue.
I think I'll stick with the General Electrics I can buy easily and for a reasonable price. I'm sure they won't look so good next to the Psvanes but will perform better and last longer. These NOS GE's were made in Canada, are they really good?
