Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: You haven't jumped the gun. The pre in question is the Budgie.

I find the Bugle Boys a little soft in my Cary SLI-80 but are very listenable.
The EH were hard in the mids and highs.
I am running Sylvania 7308's currently, an outstanding tube.
I am going to order a couple of pairs of RCA labeled Sylvania's as the 7308 tubes are too expensive nowadays.
$45/pair from Brent Jessee for the 6922's vs. $150-$250/pair elsewhere for 7308's.
I will try GL 6922's someday. I have not had the best of luck with GL though.
I ran the KT88's and they seemed to go south quite quickly. I also had the 12AX7 in my phono pre and one went bad after about 40 hrs. It was past the 30 day warranty period so I guess I am out of luck.
Without music what is there?
