I've tried a few and I prefer the Gold Lion 6922. Also new gear can be pretty hard on tubes, so that may be an even bigger factor in limiting your choices.

The most important thing when choosing driver or preamp tubes isn't "spending the most" but getting the "best tube for YOUR system". Don't assume cost always equals the better sounding tube.

When I need GOOD honest advice I contact Jim McShane. Jim's part Saint, part audio enthusiast and part Therapist to some of our more neurotic tubophiles.

Addendum: I did a little reading and the LSA. I also noticed that it comes with EH6922s. From MY limited knowledge of tubes I believe they are also one of the few tubes that can handle being driven quite hard. So check before you buy or you are just going to blow tubes.

If you want a general review of the GL I use it in my Conrad Johnson. Reviews can vary on use and gear.
