Try Brimar 13D5 or for even better performance Tungsram E80cc. I used the E80cc on my W-5Ms and extra .3 amp on the E80cc filament did not bother the power transformer. HF-85? These W-5M are more cool to me plus are monoblocks!

...tubes for the 12AU7 positions. I'd love to try E80CCs, but they're not cheap. I might have to cough up real money (gasp!). Meanwhile, I find 6CG7s down in my sofa cushions.I was referring to (sold) Eico HF-85 preamp that I could've used for these Heath monoblocks.
I still have my HF81, which I mentioned earlier. Sure digging some Stones on the Hk W5's now. 6P3S-E's from Mr McShane working very well, perfectly balanced and running 47.5V bias.Peter

Thats a hell of a great tube,the 6p3se.
When problems become increasingly difficult,we can always rely on our collective knowledge and seek relief.
I just received some Brimar 13D6 blackplates (12BH7 equivalent).... man these are outstanding !!
Very high resolution like the truly refined Tungsram E80CC, except that these are less hi fi sounding-i.e: a whole lot more musical ;-)
13D6=12BH7- tnx for tip.
