it brought a new life to my Audible Illusions 3. At first, the sound was so dead and lifeless but as it warmed up and broke in there was a significant difference in terms of musical coherency. The palpability of the musical instruments is so life-like and precise. Never in my wildest imagination did I expect my AI can deliver more juice simply by replacing my NOS Amperex with the Gold Lion's Kevin's Stash. Thank you so much, guys. You got yourselves another satisfied and happy customer!

REPLACED STOCK TUBE (ELECTRO HARMONIX 6922) AND GOT MUCH LOWER NOISE AND MUCH GREATER FIDELITY AND WARMTH. also, the gold lion tube ran cooler than the stock tube I think getting Kevin's stash was worth the extra money and I got Kevin's stash on the next 2 tubes I bought from Upscale.

These were hand selected 6922/6DJ8 tubes intended for use in an ARC SP-10, which can be very fussy about noise and microphonics, and 6922's typically are noisy and/or microphonic. Kevin selected these personally and they absolutely lived up to expectations. Very quiet operation now. Very pleased! My shop has recommended Upscale Audio as a go-to source for vacuum tubes for years now and have never been let down. You guys rock!

Rolled these to replace OEM tubes which came with Feliks Echo II. Still in breakin period (about 40 hours). Very clean sounding. Looking for a little more bass as these burn in. Time will tell.
