Here is the response from Lew at cj regarding the 6922's and issues re the GAT on tube life.

One more cj 6922 has just gone noisy. This one barely lasted 2 months
Any ideas guys? Fwiw - my unit is 220-240 export unit and Australia is 240 vlts sometimes up to 250vlts If this does not improve, I will be forced to look at other pre amp alternatives. Cheers |

Tubes are beginning to be a real PITA. Have had more of the small signal tubes failing-esp. ECC83s. Only one found reliable is the re-issue Tungsol. And I've had issues with those 6H30 "supertubes" in the ART; two died within six months. Lately have been luckier and tubes have been lasting longer.

No real issues with tubes failing except for the GAT pre amp - I have never had a small tube go on my amps. I think you need to clone those 2 x 6922's you have on your GAT |

I had a stock EH tube go back in March. Replaced them both with Genalex Gold lions. Was on Holiday for most of April. Now the left channel has gone this time with intermittent crackling. Maybe i've just been really unlucky.

Back in January this year, I bought a couple 6922 SIEMENS WEST GERMANY 1974 "SILVER-SHIELD" A-FRAMES.
These, knock-on-wood have been solid ever since, and they sound pretty good also. Pretty bad when ya get 4 months from a set of tubes and it's an improvement! |
