Tube-O-phile,
Needing some suggestions on a pair of 12AX7s that have the same sonic attributes as my Chinese Penta/Shuguang 12AX7, supposedly warm and big sounding. Tried Psvane 12AX7s and Telefunken smooth plates which were cleaner but imaging was thinner and flat sounding compared to the big sound of the stock Penta/Shuguang in my Vac 160i tube integrated amp.
My KT88s are Shuguang Black Treasures, 4x 12AU7s Telefunken smooth plates and a single Tung sol square geter in position V04.
Thanks,
Wig
