Ok, was told not to hog up thread space here so last post for a bit until I get invited back… If you’d like a combo pairing suggestion… one for Radiohead music in particular. (just love their recordings) 6H8C (early to mid 50’s) and Bendix 6080WB… To Die For… Love this combo.
What do you-mean you were told not to hog upthread space? That’s exactly what these threads are for 
posting info pertinent to the thread. I’ve been reading this thread and gleeming much useful info from reading folks experience here.

Thanks Nick, I think it’s the threads auto reply or some mechanism built in the site that sends out these messages if your posting more than your share … lol… nobody here told me that. Felt like I was violating the sites posting policy there. Have to pace myself I guess.

I’ll use my moderator status to say you’ve posted a lot but it’s all been on-topic and potentially helpful for future Darkvoice tube rollers. Feel free to keep fighting the good fight on this thread

Here’s an interesting paring. (adapter required) two (single triode) Sylvania 7A4 driving a Sylvania 7236. The Sylvania 7A4 tubes are a nice rounded pairing with the same loose tubey sound of the RCA 6AS7G tubes, paired with a tighter and faster output tube like the Sylvania 7236 (polar opposite of the RCA 6as7g) you got a nice yin and yang mix going on here. They’re both well extended in the stage width.

And for those with xtra cash wanting something exotic for the Darky… (Dual 6J5 adapter needed) this pair of tubes could be end game for a lot of folks.

Really… just the adaptor and the 2 tubes? What about the rear tube? That slot just stays open? Sorry about the noob questions but this is beyond my experience level.

yes! lol, rear tube needed. Mullard 6080 plays well with these guys.

Where did you get the Tung-Sol 7236 and a Tung-Sol 6SN7GTB
ebay is your friend. just be smart and check the feedback for the seller. also don’t be afraid to ask more knowledgeable people on forums like this for advice on whether a tube is genuine or not

Anyone here ever used a 6SG7GT on the DarkVoice before?
My Darkvoice has given me the single largest return on the least amount of $$$$ i have spent on any single audio product i own. I spent an entire day listening to it and enjoying my music recently…it’s good to be a tone deaf / ignorant audiophile 
To each their own, i have spent plenty on this hobby myself, i am happiest when i chase the enjoyment of the music rather than the perfection of the sound and equipment. Now off i go to look at more expensive and better stuff 
afterr dropping my turd of wisdom…

For it’s been the opposite…lol, I have invested huge in different tube types. I had no idea that was a thing when I bought the Darkvoice. Now that I’ve collected more than I’ll ever use, contemplating selling some. Little torn with that idea as I know most of these tubes will be hard to come by soon.

Actually, you made a great investment in Yourself, you have gotten much experience and knowledge which you can apply to future purchases and if you shop wisely will already have known variant tubes in-hand that you can use on another different piece of equipment later on.

Excellent point!! 
Just received an Ultron 6sn7 GTB. It sounds wonderful on my DV with a Mullard 6080. Anyone else familiar with this combination?
