    Mullard NOS 1962-1965 ECL82 and a Bendix 1950's NOS 5852 is what I am using in the M2 power Supply.

      I am sure you are fine with those tubes.
      
      Especially the telefunken ecl82 made improvements in my linestage. The soundstage became more smooth.. :)

        Hmmm,
        
        
        Maybe I should get that Siemens ECL82. A telefunken is probbaly very costly?

          GEC is more musical!
