Ray Tubes 6SN7 (Reserve)
The Best of the Best
The RESERVE Collection is crafted for hifi audiophile devices. Vocals are smooth and lifelike, offering a realistic and immediate presence. The treble is crisp but balanced to avoid harshness. The low-end is full and commanding. The result is a sound that is hard to beat.
Hand-selected and tested
Gold pins for corrosion resistance and excellent conduction
A substantial upgrade from standard NOS tubes
Magic Coating: Monocrystalline carbon coating enhances sound by cooling, blocking noise, and allowing for quicker electron transmission
Low noise and microphonics
Fewer than 5% of the tubes commissioned for production meet our voltage, current, and sound signature standards
12-month warranty against manufacturing defects

Engineered Exclusively for Audiophile Systems
The RESERVE Collection is designed for audiophile systems. These tubes focus on vocal realism, texture, and extended bass. Every part of their design enhances the listening experience in high-fidelity systems.
Ensuring Excellence
Every tube in the RESERVE Collection is thoroughly tested. An engineer checks each one for sound quality, dynamics, microphonics, gain, conductance, noise levels, and overall performance. This ensures they meet high standards for sound and reliability.
Magic Coating
Some things are better left unseen. You can’t see inside the RESERVE tube because it’s coated with something called monocrystalline carbon. This layer keeps the electrons on their toes, cools things down, and blocks out noise. If you’re into engineering, you might find the science fascinating. For the rest of us, it’s basically magic. The coating is delicate and tough to apply, which complicates production. That’s why we only use it for our RESERVE tubes—and why it costs more. When all’s said and done, it just means one thing—the sound is amazing.
