I am shocked to say that the sound seems fuller, wider and deeper. It could be the fact I spent almost $50 buying this so it better do something, right?!?Seriously, the sound certainly seems more pleasing. I've listened to the new tube for 20 - 30 hours.I would rather have purchased the more expensive headphone amp at $350, but it contains 4 tubes. That's quite an investment if you want to play around rolling tubes, as they say.Update: With a headphone upgrade recently and some more back and forth due to travel (I didnt want to bring the $40 tube so I brought the $10 one) I can add two specifics to my review. Highs are much cleaner than the stock Vali 2 tube, and bass is clearer more powerful. Miles Davis' trumpet on Love For Sale (a track on Cannonball Adderly's Something Else record) plays several series of stacatto notes that were harsh on the stock tube, but on the Gold Lion sound much smoother. And the stand up bass comes through much more. Violin's on King Crimson's Starless (a track on the album Red) don't screech -- though maybe they're supposed to? j/kHighly recommended as an upgrade if you have this amp with the stock tube. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes my ears happy! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 5, 2017* I recently purchased a Schiit Vali 2 hybrid headphone amp and bought this as my first tube to roll with it. The Vali 2 is currently shipping from Schiit with Canadian 6BZ7 tubes which are fairly neutral and "solid state" sounding. This is done on purpose so the buyer can fine tune the sound to preference with a tube of choice.After switching to this Gold Lion E88CC, I immediately noticed the increased bass/low end presence. The sound became smoother, deeper, and easier on the ears overall compared to the 6BZ7 tube. The 6BZ7 had a couple days to burn in and the Gold Lion E88CC sounded better to my ears straight out of the box. I'm definitely curious to see how the sound develops after a proper burn in period.Update 8/11/17:This Gold Lion E88CC is still going strong after 5 months left in the Vali 2 amp and powered up 100% of the time. No issues whatsoever. Currently using this setup with a Schiit Modi Multibit DAC and Sennheiser HD650, HD598, Fostex TH-X00 EB headphones. The sound remains smooth, but clean and detailed with plenty of oomph in the low end. I definitely recommend giving this tube a try! ## Frequently Bought Together - Genalex Gold Lion E88CC / 6922 Gold Pins Preamp Vacuum Tube - Single - Electro-Harmonix 6922, Balanced Triodes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/2636198-genalex-gold-lion-e88cc-6922-gold-pins-preamp-vacuum-tube](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/2636198-genalex-gold-lion-e88cc-6922-gold-pins-preamp-vacuum-tube) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
