Is this a quote or paraphrased from a tube sellers ad? it seems like pretty much everyone has their own idea of what "darkish, romantic and lush sounding 12ax7 without sacrificing much detail and image focus. Does especially well in vocal band and piano". Because everyone recommends different tubes that shows, no one really has a good idea of what you mean. I have been into tubes for over 25 years and if I thought my amp/preamp/m.i.amp needed to change from how it sounds to what you are describing, I would have no idea what ax7 tube could do that. I would wonder if maybe your equipment or ancillary components are performing as they should? In other words maybe their is a frequency anomaly that makes your equipment sound the way that it does. regards, Dak
