Tube rolling for the Miniwatt 2013

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

I bought a Miniwatt 2013 amp a couple of weeks ago and was very impressed with it. It uses Chinese 6J1 for the driver and a 6P1 for the output. I searched for some suggestions for tube rolling and was able to get WE 403B's to replace the 6J1 drivers. These are great tubes and really improve the sound.

But I am having a problem with the 6P1 output replacements. I bought several Svetlana 6P1P-EV's, but they don't work properly. I can barely hear any sound when the amp is turned up max. They seem to not be an equivalent.

I am hoping someone can suggest an alternative. I tried on the AMP/PREAMP forum with no luck.

BTW, I read that 6AQ5 would work, but they are seven pin tubes, not 9 pins like the 6P1. I suppose I could get an adapter, but I prefer the correct tube.
