How are the GE 12AU7's?
SHould I be trying something else in there?
Also what EL34's do you recommend? I have no idea what ones come with the kit. THey do sound very nice. But you know how it is with tubes - try - try - try!
Or should I try KT66's. My goal is purely musical not analytical.

Charles,
I'm not aware of the 12AU7 GEs having a microphonics issue. Sonically - they're good, but not as good as some others. But I'd try them and try the 5963s too - you might have good ones!
Which EL34s? Genalex KT-77s, no question. Amazing tube, great tone and problem-free. They are considered by many to sound like a cross between an EL34 and a 6L6.
Try the JJ ECC802s. Long plates, spiral filaments. Very nice sounding tube ... for a 12AU7 that is.
