Amperex PQ 6922 = E88CC D-Getter Matched Pair - New York, USA '60

Description: Soundlumia's Opinion Our best seller is back in stock - the Amperex USA 6922 PQ White Print! We have recommended PQ's to more than 20 wonderful patrons of Soundlumia eBay store around the world, who are enjoying the superb PQ sound in their class leading amplifiers from Audio Research, Ear, Schiit Audio and Cavalli etc. Among all the PQ tubes, the USA white print version (made in Hicksville, New York) is the most sought after by serious audiophiles and tube enthusiasts. They are as sweet and smooth as the Amperex Holland PQ tubes, with even better detail and very spacious sound stage, which offers an amazing bird's eye view of the shape of your sound, so you know exactly how tall and wide the sound stage is. The tone is warm yet lively, mids are forward but also expansive like what you hear on their cousins from the Holland factory, bass is punchy but not heavy. We have recommended them to so many satisfied customers that we have given them a nick name "sound purifier" - the sound that comes from these tubes has absolutely no edginess, glassiness or harshness, and you hear nothing but the soul of your music and all of it. They are the best tubes to to put in the phono stage to "purify" your sound in my opinion. As to vocals, I have no further comment than that the best Mullards were actually sourced from Holland PQ's (Made in Gt. Britain w/ Heerlen date codes) and USA PQ's beat the Holland ones in vocals period. Listening to Righteous Brothers' Unchained Melody through these PQ tubes should be on your bucket list, no matter what type of music you enjoy.

Return Policy - Please READ carefullyReturns are acceptable if we made a mistake by delivering you wrong or defective products. Tubes we sell are guaranteed to work because we run professional tests and sound evaluation TWICE: before they are approved for listing AND before we ship them to customers. So the "defective item" case doesn't exist and please do not bother trying - this type of returns will NOT be accepted without proof that tubes are faulty and we will open disputes with eBay. Sound experience is very subjective and we do NOT accept returns because you do not like the tube's sound signature or because you changed your mind about your purchase. Please contact us to work things out before submitting return requests claiming "item is defective" or "item not as described" or "just didn't like it" or "changed my mind." Tube rollers abusing the return system will be reported to eBay immediately and negative feedback will be left to your account - that's guaranteed. We have already opened several dispute cases to report abusive buyers and eBay has always ruled in our favor. International buyers who request return or refund claiming your country's import duties or sales tax/GST/VAT are too high will be reported to eBay immediately for dishonesty and will be permanently blacklisted from purchasing from Soundlumia. We are committed to working closely with eBay to help rid the marketplace of dishonest, unjust, unreasonable, abusive buyers that are detrimental to the vintage tubes market and the audiophile community.
