"Just keep trying and returning candidates."
Unfortunate in Toronto,Canada dealers don't have in stock many SET's nor to let me listen in my system.
Hence my asking for A direction.

Have you tried first watt SIT?
No,not yet.I am still SET guy at my heart. :-)
Yeah, I know the problem.
Unfortunately, many of the better SETs are expensive and specs don't really help. And there are plenty of variables, a noisy tube or as Chip mentioned, a poor match with the preamp.
I was fighting some hum for months and finally replaced all my preamp tubes and then had to swap 6922s a few times to get the right mix. Beware that any recommendation might not work for you.
How does the system sound with your old amp or a SS amp? Is it quiet?

I sold my japanese 2A3 and have no amp now. It was perfect with Coincident 95db but not anymore at 105db.
