Which 519 ?

I am going to retube my EAR 869 amp (it is a SET amp working in so called "Enchanced triode mode"). It has two EL519 output valves.
I curently have a choice of Ei EL 519, Tungsram PL509, and Siemens PL519.
All are similarly priced. Which one to choose??? Any other suggestions?
(I don't want any fancy and expensive NOS)
Is there any difference between 519 and 509 ?

Thanx.
