Many other NOS or just old stock tubes. They aren't terribly expensive if you pick cautiously. Given that I would try a few NOS 12AT7s and see if any of them make you happy.
A tube with a gain of 70 vs the 12AT7's 60 is the 5751. You may want to try a GE grey plate for example or a JAN tube, these can get very pricy. There are current production 5751s as well which are fairly inexpensive. They are used in place of 12AX7s in many instances so the other parameters may fit your application, I don't know.
