@Eli Duttman. Thank you for your feedback. Need your help once again. My amps were fitted with 5z4 originally. Replaced with sovtek 5ar4 as I had difficulty sourcing decent 5z4 at that time. 5ar4 sound "hard" and it gives me listening fatigue. Would switching to sovtek 5v4 or the rca be a lateral move? Should I continue to source for a decent 5z4?
Follow Ups:
The 5AR4 probably sounds "hard" due to increased B+ rail voltage.
Look for the 6087/5Y3WGTB. Unlike other 5Y3 variants, it has a cathode sleeve and is quite close to the 5Z4. FWIW, RES has a $25 listing for the 6087/5Y3WGTB.
