In Reply to: RE: Mullard CV4004 or Mullard ECC83? posted by ralpheburns on October 21, 2014 at 21:14:11
Here's the link to the eBay Brimar 12BH7s, and the seller says he will match into pairs, so I wonder about those vs. RCA black plates. For any of these like the square getter Mullard 12AX7s on eBay, I'm clueless on how to read those test stats to determine tube condition, and could use some pointers.
- thanks in advance!

Preamp is solid state, a Hegel P30. It's clean and neutral, kinda like I found in the Quicksilver Silver 88s. I had a tube pre-out DAC (AMR DP-777), and the sounds were close, but I had reliability problems with the AMR. The Heel is not without a problem though, and that's the remote jumps in big db steps... I wouldn't have bought it had I demo'd the remote. Source are FLACS and DSD from a SoTM Zuma CAPS music computer into a Hegel HD25 DAC (strong, warm sound).
Shucks , with a tube amp like a Quicksilver thought you had a tube preamp and sometimes rolling tubes there is more helpful.
Sorry not familiar at all with the Hegel
Thanks ok, the Hegel is very neutral... so much so it derailed my notions of getting a tube preamp. Anyways, I'm not necessarily looking for a big change in the sound, just want to stock up on a set of tubes that will project a good soundstage and have articulate bass extension.
