I find the RCA to be dependable and robust, meaning a clean strong output. As for sound they have more detail but can sound hrad edged sometimes, that is with the older 3 mica black plate. They made a double mica which was promoted as a premium tube called the 'Command Series'. I had a few of them. I should have one or two lying around but just haven't seen them. I can't recall the plate color but I think grey, or any special pin treatment. They seemed innocuous to me, inoffensive but not inspiring either.
Spoiler alert boring tube story.
I thought I was doing a good deed but.......
I once sent a few RCA Commands to a guy on a fixed income as his CJ amp needed a couple and CJ's prices were not acceptable also he had the RCA Commands in the amp before and liked them. I was practically giving them away I asked for no money up front, not even shipping, because he needed the next check to afford them.. He said that one was noisy and another had some other issue. I never heard those things in my amps or testers. He did return them at least. I wish I knew where they are now!
