ARC Ref 3: Tung-Sol 6550 in power supply?

I've read every post in this thread with interest.

I have the Ref 3 in my audio system that replaced my SP-14. The system also includes a ARC CD-7 and a PH-7 phono stage. The addition of the Ref-3 brought my system to the best its ever sounded. I mean ... its great!

Now then, about a month ago, I, and a friend, went to a live symphony and sat in the third row center. My question is this: What tubes can I use in my Ref-3 that will make my system sound like THAT!? ~lol~

OP.

The short answer is. . . there isn't such a tube, nor there is such a linestage, nor there is such a system that will sound "just like a live symphony orchestra."
Your system can sound phenomenally fantastic. . . and yet it will sound always different from what your own ears heard at that particular live orchestra event. Welcome to the hyperreality of high end audio! G.

Dear all,

I became curious. I acquired 2 NOS Tung Sols Black Plate 1957. Can I exchange without any other "thing to take care off"?
Keep you posted.

Cheers,

It all depends what Tung Sols Black Plate 1957tubes you purchased.
