RE: Oops! Not my preference

I used some in place of a 12AU7 and found them empty sounding. They had no body just an echo like sound, with extreme treble and bass being thinly represented and everything else missing entirely.
I think the amp must make a really important difference for this tube but anyplace I tried them (many years ago,) sounded awful. Could just be a bad tube and very very amp specific. Not sure if I even still own one or two??
