Comparisons - 37 and 76

Thanks Timoteus. Very useful. You have some rare examples.
My own findings:
37 GE - very nice+
37 RCA - very nice-
76 Bentley - very nice+
76 Brimar - very nice+
76 Kenrad - very nice
76 Hytron - very nice-
76 Mazda - OK but a bit noisy at times
These 37 and 76 were the best sound of this type of tube. Some 6P5 were just as good, Sylvania better than RCA and Tung-Sol the least good, rather soft sounding and a more stumpy bottle than the others.
These were all better than 6G6G and 6V6 in triode.
