Suggest me a build for HD600 headphones

I mean a specific tube does not have a specific sound quality. You can apply Tube X correctly and get a good response, or you can apply it incorrectly and get a bad response. Your choice.

Ever tried to get good sound out of a ECC81? I bet not. The most advanced & tested circuit with a ECC81 will do sound MUCH worse than a badly designed circuit with 6N1P or 6N6P. Please do not take it as an offense but you just can't have so much practical experience concerning these problems🙂

No offence taken. You simply did not understand me. No worries.

Another fact: a tube does not have a sound quality, it has characteristics. The characteristics must be manipulated by the circuit designer with the circuit architecture / topology.

My underlying points were:

A tube is a device that has characteristics that must be manipulated. It (any tube) does not contain a 'sound quality' even though the hard-of-thinking may talk themselves into believing otherwise.

Understand the basics, then choose the right tube for the application, then apply it right.

Indeed I was not arguing in favour of one particular tube, but arguing in favour of understanding the underlying facts rather than choosing on sentiment.

I trust that you now understand me.
