Re: What is the Holy Grail of 6CA7s not EL34s

6CA7s are beam power tetrodes. EL34s are power pentodes. They are electrically equivalent, but don't sound alike.

US made NOS is a good place to start in the "beamies". Check AA sponsor Jim McShane's pages for stock. Try the other tube selling sponsors too.
