Hi and thanks a lot.
Not that the choice is limited ... but i like the 12bh7 tube.
I read something about it. It is a quite neglected tube, maybe because it was used in television sets ?
Everyone talks about 12au7 or 6922 ... i wonder if they are really so superior tubes for audio ...
Actually i tried one 12bh7 in place of a 12au7 in a cathode follower and was shocked how much more i liked the sound.
Anyway as i am sure the unit will come with a chinese tube no brand, what would be a good candidate for a E88CC/6922, ECC88/6dj8 tube ?
I like clean and powerful sounds. Not too mellow i mean.
Thanks a lot again.
Kind regards,
bg
