Here are some quads of tubes that I no longer have a need for, but was not willing to include with my old amp when I traded it in as they are unique, rare, and/or premium. I would prefer to sell them as quads, but PM me and we can chat. All tubes are burned in, but have no more than 500 hours on them. Pictures to follow...
6L6GC SED =C= that hold bias great from Tube Depot: $100 shipped CONUS
1985 6N23P-EV with CCCP stamp (6922/6DJ8 variant). Exact same structure and weight as current Gold Lion 6922 tubes; never seen these tubes anywhere else: $150 shipped CONUS
1968 Voskhod 6N1P-EV with rocket logo (6922/6DJ8 variant). Great vintage Russian tubes built originally for the space program: $50 shipped CONUS
More to come when I get home and figure out what else I have.

Here are two of the 1985 6N23P-EV tubes; they are the physically heaviest tubes of this variant that I've owned.

The SED =C= are great, the 6N23P-EVs are a unique alternative to the Gold Lion 6922 with the same great sound and build quality, and 6N1Ps are just cool, vintage tubes.

I just found in my stash a quad of 80s, long plate, Westington House 6CG7 that I ran in a SE amp. Great tubes that can sub for 6DJ8s in some amps and sound great.

I'm currently using a quad of RCA 6922/E88CC tubes in my Carver C-19 pre. Do you think any of your quads would be better? I'm not familiar with the tube numbers you have. The Carver originally came with 6DJ8 tubes.

I love the 1985 6N23P-EV because they have loads of detail and are very neutral. They are my favorite 6DJ8 variant, and would be a direct plug-in in your preamp.
The 6N1Ps also sound very good but because it has a higher current draw than the 6DJ8, it doesn't work in some preamps. If you don't know whether it would work in the C-19, and/or do the testing to find out, the 6N23P-EV would work great and sound great. -
