Oh, OK. Looking a little closer those big tubes must then be 5U4'S? I initially though they may have been some big triode for input and phase split.

Actually RCA 5V4G. I run in parallel due to high current draw of amp. I use a choke input PS with 5Hy @ 500ma choke & a true paper/oil cap. RCA 5V4G sounds better than a Mullard GZ34 per a few audiophiles.

I would encourage you to test for yourself. In my tests the 5V4G was my least favorite rectifier with the most compressed dynamics. The Mullard GZ34 and a generic 5V3A were the best sounding rectifiers and there was very little difference between the two.
I have enough filament power. I will try 2x RCA 5V3A.
