Jan GE 6cG7 what other tube recommendations

Hi Detredwings,

Is Jan GE the same brand as Amperex.

I would not worry about it too much. All of the vintage 6CG7s are excellent tubes :)

I did read somewhere about the Amperex being a re-branded GE or Sylvania but I am by no means an authority on the subject. As Atmashere said all the vintage 6CG7 tubes are good.
I just like the sound of this tube. It's basically a miniature 6SN7. If your going to keep your preamp it is worth getting some tubes to try.
Just a note. If you are able to change the heater voltage from 6.3 to 8 volts. You can use the 8cg7. They are the same tube with a different heater voltage and you can get them cheap.

The 6CG7 is also a 6FQ7 and you might find more options with that number. I've always liked the GE's or the Philips/Sylvania.

Hi all,

What are the RCA black plate "Fat D getter" type or Rayheon glass like sonically?
Cheers
Steve.
