That's pretty cool but they let out a lot of the newer Euro tubes and all of the reissues.

Doesn't say what circuit they are being run in.

From what I gather it's their in-house comparison, so they only mention the tubes they stock.

Tube reviews are really subjective and dependent on the amplifier though. I really liked Tung Sols over JJs in my old Laney, but I hated the Tung Sols in my OR120, where I prefer the tightness of the JJs.
