Re: 6922 for a CJ Premier 17LS

Mullards are known for their warmth and richness. The only time I tried them, two out of the four failed (turned white) within 50 hours in the 17LS and I haven't tried the ones I have remaining in the 16LS2. In my opinion either model in this series of preamps is outstanding. I don't, however, have any experience with the 16LS or the 17LS2, the latter, from what I've read leans the most towards a "solid state" sound. As much as that phrase may be applied to C-J tubed equipment.

Bottom line, the Mullards may be worth a try. Hopefully my experience was an exception in terms of reliability.
