I would like to know the difference between them green and yellow valve colour codings. I sure hope some of you guys would know the differences, cause I've ordered two sets of Winged C 6L6 quads, with each set being one of those two colour codes I've mentioned...

If you're referring to the Mesa color coding, red have the most headroom/latest breakup, then yellow, green, gray, blue, white. So, yellows are a bit "cleaner" than greens.

Cheers, that's all I need to know. I'll happily test out both, and hear which ones sound "better"...

I doubt there will be much difference between the yellow and greens, but I'm curious to hear your review. In which amp are you running them?

Into a Mesa Roadster head. Well, maybe I wouldn't be able to tell the difference when I get them installed. We shall see if they do...
