I hope for NW or WW.

I already asked for that. Without wanting to start a tint discussion here (history learns that leads to nowhere, too many opinions, so please do not try that, I will not communicate any result of that to Sofirn), I suggested to Barry to check the 4000K 80CRI XP-L2, as sold on Mouser and Digikey. Why? Because it is a very good compromise between output and CRI, and for one reason or another, Cree hit the tint precisely right on that one (I used it in a few lights, and even the yellow-ish ring around the hotspot typical for XP-L2 leds is not dominant on that led).

Yes, I agree with you. And you did a great choice. Warmer LEDs are better for the new all-over-phosphor LEDs.
And as you can see in on of the latest polls, something between NW and WW is the best for the most people. Which colour of LED bulbs is preferred?
4000K 80CRI was even verry good on the XHP70.2 with verry low Vf.
