I have 15 pairs of Amperex tubes 6sn7, 6sl7, ECC82 and ECC83.
They give nice texture with musicality although they may appear to lack details compared with Telefuken and Tungsol Nos tubes.

According to many sources, Amperex did not make a 6SN7. They were manufactured by GE or Sylvania and branded Amperex. Same with Philips, Sylvania made these tubes to Philips' specs. I own a pair of these.
They are US and not from Holland.
Wow, you must have some great sources. Are those NOS Mullards or new production with Mullard branding?
My comment was related to Amperex and Bugle Boy 6SN7s. They were not made in Heerlen, Holland (according to Brent Jessee, Head-Fi, and I forget the other source).
The Philips I have sound nothing like the traditional Philips/Amperex sonics which are found in their other tube types.
These was bought 30 years ago, the tubes were made in Bruxelles but with Mullard logo, all brand new with original boxes
That's fantastic, and they were probably inexpensive. I'm guessing they were from a Philips factory?
