Actually my best friend.
I gave him four nos Mullard gold pin 6922's because he stuck by me during some hard times and does to this day.
He plugged two of them into the 12AX7 sockets in the phono stage of his pre. When he heard crackling and popping, he turned the unit off. Then thinking there was something wrong with the tubes, he plugged the remaining 6922 pair into the 12AX7 sockets again!
He realized what he had done and called me on the phone. There was not much I could do about it at that point.
I gave him four new Amperex 6922 oranges (green/yellow box) and told him not to hurt himself!
