RE: 12ax7...seeking darkish, romantic and lush sounding

@sondek. Thanks for your reponse. 5751 sounds like something I would like to explore. Read that there will be no issues replacing the 12ax7 that I a using now with 5751...however with 30 percent less gain. Read some reviews that only a "little" gain will be lost. Hmmm. Is it correct to say that if I listen to my system with volume set at "10 o'clock" normally, I will have to turn it up to 12? Seems like quite a lot and I could possibly overwork my amp. Your thoughts? Thanks for your help.
