"And that seems to be my experience with New Production tubes. Yes, you can get high quality, great sounding tubes that rival NOS. You can also get a dud the next time."
NOS/used tubes are similar in that no tube 'does it' in all circuits. Your best bet is to search here for tubes you are interested in to get a sense of its sonic attributes. It flies in the face of reason but it has been my experience that many new production small signal tubes take much longer to settle in than NOS. A used tube does not have this issue.
Have fun with the roll and don't go crazy. ;-)
