Those 440 AND 450 STR are legit af per THE man. Those are Siemans mand in Germany but they aren't cheap.

The str 440's are chinese, same tube as the Ruby 6L6GCMSTR

The mesa 12ax7 are jj's, same tube as the jj ecc83.

Apparently you can now get mesa branded jj 6l6 (str 445) as well as tung sol(str 441) and electro harmonix 6l6 (str 443). It might be because there are production problems in the chinese factory.
 
The el34 STR 450 holds true, I know for a fact they are Siemans made and excellent tubes.
