    Yeah thats what I thought at first, but Sovtek name is no where on the tube and I looked at other Sovtek tubes online and no looked like the logo on the tube.

    Raven...you are correct! I was able to find a french audio forum over seas and the guy said of his SA-T1... "My current tubes are original and they are NOS Sovtek matched by Vincent."

    I thought they may be from the Voskhod plant, I have some Sovtek NOS 6N1P's that have some stars and/or rocket logo on them and they were made in the Voskhod plant.

    They look like the Chinese tubes I quickly rolled from one of my ebay amp. The Chinese love stars more than the Ruskies.

    If your amp was made in China you can bet it will come with tubes that were also made in China.
