In Reply to: RE: Tube rolling preamp or power amp gain tubes, which ones (or both)? posted by sony6060 on January 17, 2017 at 03:33:18:
Sony, not picking on you but it seems there is a lot of it that goes on but people want to contribute.
Face it tube rolling can get expensive quickly. There are also many variables that change with each listeners equipment, room, source input etc. I would suggest in a different manner than put forth earlier, that the OP figure out just what he prefers as far as signal input(turntable, CD, streamed music) then begin with that circuit of the preamp, IE line in, phono, etc. then work from there. Do one change at a time and get comfortable with it. What you may find as a miraculous improvement in one instance can wear on you a few days later. At some point undo your change and listen again.
Of course the search function of the asylum can be a wonderful resource to hear others opinions on differing tubes. Also these days, DO NOT dismiss modern iterations of tubes available. I stll think the Sovtek 12ax7LPS is the best phono input tube available. You can't beat the price!
