i tried Northern Electric 6SN7 ....

My amp's driver section, these the better tubes from TJ Full Music. One made humming noise right off from the start. Dealer sent me a second and that worked well for around 80 hours and then went bad. I was sent a third and that one hummed as well. So I came to the realization they did not work in my amp. I had a Sylyvania 6SN7 that was dead quiet. I then tried a 6H8C and that work well and sounds the best out of all of them.

I have not tried the N.E. In a preamp but their 12AU7s are still going strong and sound great in my amp. Over 200 hours on them now.
