Re: Ehien, what's ur choices?

Actually, my favorite combos are not too different from Don's.

What I use at this moment is:

GE 5751 black plate 3 mica
Sylvania 6SN7GT green label
GE 6CA7 fat bottle

What I used before that was:

Sovtek 12AX7LP
Ken-Rad VT-231 staggered plate
JJ E34L

But, generally I've found the sound to be quite satisfactory even with random pick of good ones from each of three groups:

12AX7:
GE 5751 b.p. 3 mica
Syl GB-5751 gold pin/non gold pin
RCA 5751 b.p. 3 mica
TFK 12AX7 smooth plate
Mazda 12AX7 grey plate
Tungsram ECC83
Sovtek 12AX7LP/S

6SN7:
Ken-Rad VT-231 staggered plate
Syl VT-231
Syl 6SN7GT
RCA VT-231

EL34:
GE 6CA7 fat bottle
JJ E34L

Have fun!
