The 6H30 is a dual triode, so I presume the balance that they refer to is the matching of each triode within the individual 6H30.
I suppose that we will be good to go, putting one pair in V1/V2, and the other pair in V3/V4. Once you have installed your new tubes, let us know if the system sounds better to your ears. And, did you opt for a set of Upscale's upgraded tubes: the ARC select, Platinum, or cryo treated?
