I had a pair of these. There they were, sitting in their box. A cryoed pair for Upscale. I normally don't buy Cryo but did for some reason. Put them in my headphone amp. Sounded good then not so good. Then I remember, I hadn't used them, they aren't burned in at all. After a few days, much more transparent, good solid bass and nice staging. Weird, I bought them and then put them in my closet with a few other 1000 tubes. So what was my point in buying them? lol

Anyways, in Triode or UL, I like them. I had some NOS Mullard XF2 in before them.

iBasso DX300MAX Ti. Focal Utopia and Stellia. iBasso SR2. Mr. Speakers, Ether II, Voce stats. Manley, Absolute headphone amp. LTA MZ3, Z10e electrostatic amp. Many other headphones, amps, cables etc.
