Thanks for the detailed warnings regarding tube matching. Very informative. I figured I would have to get more than 8 if I wanted to try new, matched, drivers across the board. I am running a mish-mash of Sovtek, Philips, and others, chosen for no other reason than their ease of matching and biasing. I wanted to sell the amp a few months ago, but after swapping it in and out with a D 70 MkII, I decided I liked the VT 100's sound better, despite its being possibly the most user unfriendly amp ever made, (surely in the top 10 all-time.) I'd dump the damn thing if I didn't like its sound so much.
It might be a lot to ask, but given the cost of tubes these days, is there any description you might give me regarding the effect on the sound quality the EH tubes have (warm, neutral, cool, strong/weak bass, etc.) Much appreciated.
