6F5 has a grid cap, is high mu, and metal octal based..those were used in the Ampex 601 tape recorder preamp...Yes, noise is always a challenge in this position.
That's what I thought too, the isolated grid on the top really makes sense here! I'm curious to see if I can get this to work.
6SN7 is a top tube. Is it also available in the steel version? I like their (single triode) predecessors 6C5 and 6J5 very much. Absolutely recommended for those who don't have them yet. I have a lot of them and they are still very good and inexpensive to get, which unfortunately can no longer be said of the 1620. They are becoming really rare, at least on my side of the pond.

Interesting, seems to be some kind of a half 12AX7 for octal sockets. I think I saw one in an early Gibson Amp.6F5 has a grid cap, is high mu, and metal octal based..those were used in the Ampex 601 tape recorder preamp...
Bummer!I’ve never heard a quiet 6F5!
