“I can't say where the diminishing return thing kicks in in regards to Cryo, this system is reasonably revealing and I'd guess that would probably matter and yes, it's the first time I've tried the Cryo treatment - - that said, from this experience, I know I'll always go with Cryo treatment in future tube sets - - this may be the 4th or 5th tube set for my ARC Ref6SE - - which is the upgraded SE version from a standard Ref6, that's the reason for having employed a few tube sets already - - this is EASILY the best set of tubes I've ever had in this line stage, and no, I'm not hypnotized, especially considering that I really didn't expect any difference over a normal match set of tubes. Also (and I've had standard Sovtek matched sets direct from ARC in this unit, which of course are excellent too), I do think the Gold Lion (gold pins) Electro-Harmonix sound better, actually, I know they do, so don't hesitate in getting ya panties knotted up and going for it if your system warrants that bit of extra investment. As a side note, I'm planning on ordering a set for my Phono3SE too - - - Sorry if this sounds like an advertisement, struck me that way as I reread it before submitting, but it's completely honest and based solely on my own personal experience.”

“I couldn't believe the difference after a few hours of listening. Well worth upgrading my audio research ph-8. A+”

“I needed a new pair of 6H30 tubes after my last pair became noisy, and degraded. I decided to get the ARC select tube matching, and the additional Cryo option. Shipping was quick, and now my amp sounds refreshed. I'm definitely happy with the tube matching, and purchase.”
