Russian 1587 tubes


Hi guys,

I have tried many different 6sn7 tubes even the Tungsol
round plate (known as the "Holy Grail" of tubes) but I
have now found the best - Russian Military 1587 -
These tubes are incredible the best of the best my system
now sounds so good everything is real and life even my
German shepeard thought that there was a fly buzzing around last night (me too for a few seconds) These tubes deliver everything, soundstage, presence, air, detail, warmth, life,
beautiful tight deep bass and the range is limitless -
I am using Cary 306 professional to DBX to Cary 300 SEI to
Tannoy 15" Berkleys with Tannoy ST-200 super tweeters.
Inter-connects are all Tyr balanced and Tyr Speaker biwired
speaker cables. Power cords are all Lessloss -
I hope that this is good info for all you tubies.

I have on its way in the Post and will report back if indeed what you say is true.

I hope you are right.
I assume you mean 1578 and not 1587. Yes, these surpass all NOS Raytheon, Sylvania, RCA, and new production types that I have tried. Authoritative, neutral across FR, detailed, smooth.
DG,
what a great system photo you took! I may try the 1578 but am enamored with the Ken-Rad VT 231 (staggered plates)

Larry, I had been planning to try Ken Rad and am considering purchase from ebay below. Is this type of tube what you recommend?

The 1578 is far inferior to the TS RP. No contest. Not even close.

My TS RP is also microphonic and it still beats the living snot out of the 1578.

End of story.
