I tossed the 6SN7s in my Preamp

and replaced them with 2C22/7193s. Far, far better sounding to me, especially when I added a CCS for the plates and diode bias using Cree SiC Schottky's. Better sound from the low bass all the way up to the shimmer of a cymbal. This is in a Supratek Chenin preamp.

P.S.: I had first tried tube rolling with all manner of Tungsols (round plates included), Sylvanias, RCA Grey glass, Raytheon, GEs, EH, Shuguang, etc. Not even close to the 2C22 IMHO.
