You won't do any better, and most are less microphonic than the WE versions.
You'd likely benefit from not using any version, and selecting any one of various better performing tubes IMHO.
Follow Ups:
I would buy a pile of the Raytheons and match them up in a jig to find two tubes with matched triodes that also match each other.
Sorry: I was thinking 5670 not 5842. You only need to find two tubes that match. It can sometimes be a challenge to find two matching high transconductance tubes, so I test those on the jig too and usually buy several more than I need in order to get a good match.
