It certainly sounds unusual. I think Rayooo was saying he'd been through a fair no. of tubes on his ET-5 as well. Something with the current ET/GAT topology perhaps?

My CT-5 currently has the Reflektor 6H30 DR "super tube" which is reputedly reknown for going tens of thousands of hours. My understanding is that one of it's primary requirements from the Soviet gov't was extreme durability.
