I ran across the following when I was trying to source less expensive tubes for my Sophia:
OK,
as of now I believe that the only tubes that directly substitute in are the 6P1 itself and its russian version 6P1P. These tubes are not the same as EL84/EL90/6AQ5/JAN600?/6P14P and so on.
It seems that you can get the 6P1 and 6P1P tubes for peanuts off ebay, but you must be sure that they are 9pin bases - ideally the seller should be able to give you a tube data sheet that you can compare.
Here is the data sheet for 6P1

and here is one for 6P1P

and 6P1P-ev (mil spec version)

should anyone need this info down the line

Someone else mentioned, the 6P1 is a 9-pin valve like the EL84 but rated at 12W dissipation, has a maximum anode voltage of 250V, and about half the gm. EL84 is 14W and 300V max. They have a different pinout too. 6P1 is electrically closer to a 6AQ5.
Hope something in here helps ...
If you aren't quite noticing or accepting what is really going on in the present,
but are responding based on your thoughts or feelings about what ought to be,
then you are apt to collide with what is really going on.
