Those Mullard EL34 are such a work of art, and have a special physical presence when they're so crisp and clean like yours are. Other vintage tubes have that too, but there's just something about those larger power tubes when all the internals are so neatly placed and precise, bottles and plates are dead-on straight (unlike modern tubes), getter flashing isn't blobby from differing glass thickness, etc. Beautiful!
