  I think 6072's interchange with 12AY7's, don't they? I seem to remember that from ny tube rolling days with my EAR 834P. With my 834P, I got just amazing detail and air with a Pearl Cryovac'd Brimar 6072 in the V3 position, but it was a bit too bright in that app.

    Claud,

    For what it's worth, I've found that the black plate GE or RCA 12AY7/6072 of the 50's to be the best. Tonewise and long life.

    These are killer tubes, in older Tweed Fender Bassman amps.
