Title: Substitutes for the 6SH7 (9 - 8 - 7 pin tubes) ?
Post by: kagliostro on June 02, 2011, 05:19:05 pm

Which tube can be used as substitutes for the 6SH7 ?

Thanks

6SJ7 will work if you move a few wires, and you can get the shielded metal version.

6SH7 and 6AU6/EF94 are as near as two tubes can be.
