I've been using Sophia Princess mesh for three years, and they really sound great. But I heard the carbon plate 300B from TJ(I believe) sound superior than WE, according to his review. But I like my AVVT 32B SL that was made for AN long time ago.
there is two carbon, but only one maybe are on my budget,
are the carbon tj full music a lot better than the meshies? I know the carbon special edition is top, but absolutelly outside my budget
I've been using the Shuguang Black bottle 300B tubes available from Grant Fidelity. There's a great comparison thread on the grant fidelity website on theior forums. I've found these tubes to be a great choice with nice detail on the top end and well controlled bass. I have not tried the TJ or Sophia so can't offer a comparison. Also to echo a previous comment the input tubes are probably more important to the overall results, I've been using GE 7044 input tubes and have some tung sol 5687s on order to try as well. Good luck.

I use the full music mesh 300b on these mono blocks
http://www2.big.or.jp/~sunaudio/sv/sv300bsm_e.html
They come original with WE 300b but i like the Fullmusic more.
the Western Electric is also very good sometimes magic but not for every type of music the mesh plates are more universal.
It is just my taste and my set so it is not usefull info for others :-)
