In Reply to: RE: Smoother tube than RCA 6080? posted by SoundMann on April 07, 2023 at 12:08:02
There are only two tube? one 6dj8 and one 6080? Which socket does the 6sn7 go in? P.S. I know that the 6080 would only fit in the 6sn7 socket but you can't sub a 6080 for a 6sn7. Those two tubes are very different.

The 6080 replaced the RCA 6SN7GA.

That is unthinkable to me. The 6080 is way different than the 6sn7. For one thing, the 6080 draws 2.5 amps of heater current, the 6sn7 draws .6 amps of heater current.
The 6080 has a plate resistance of 280 ohms, the 6sn7 has a plate resistance of 6700 ohms. The 6080 has a mu (gain) of 2, the 6sn7 has a mu of 20.
The one will not work properly in a circuit designed for the other.

Oop's. The tube that the 6080 replaced is actually an RCA 6AS7GA!
Those two are the same.
