Mine came with Sovtek "5881" as regulators, which are not really 5881s at all, but 6l6GCs. I tried NOS Tung-Sol 5881s there and thought it was an improvement, then I went with the Sovtek KT-66s (as recommended by Mick, the designer) and they sounded better than either of the others, with fuller sound and more overall sonic impact.

Thanks for the info on the adustment pots. I'll make sure those are dialed-in correctly before I start on anything else.
