Recommend a DIY amp using 6SN7

Hi guys! ahoy
So, I was shopping some tubes for my planned CTH build & came across a stock of some cheap RCA 6SN7GT side getters.
I am not really well versed with octal tubes(that's putting it mildly actually). Are there any DIY headphone amps which can make use of these tubes?
And would these amps play nice with low impedance orthos?

Can't really remember the exact details of the sound but I once had a David Berning Micro Z OTL which was 6sn7 based I think it was. I replaced the stock tubes with Sylvanias so far as I remember and they sounded nice with my Senns(hd580s at the time) and even Grados sounded smoother than usual.

EDIT: Whoops sorry the Berning OTL isn't DIY

Thanks guys, looks like I would be having much more fun tube rolling the CTH than I had originally thought. :)
I love my EHHA but it is rather limited in tube options & considering I have access to some nice tubes here locally, I thought I might as well have some fun (and may be get to learn some stuff as well.  :D)

Any suggestions on how to go about that job?

@LFF :I understand you are the person to contact for the CTH PCBs these days. Right?
