Well, I moved from the 76 driver looking for a med mu driver for the 300b-GM70 5687 didn't have enough gain, sounded ok but nothing like the 76 7788 oscillates like crazy (probably long alligator clip leads) sounded thin 6e5p with CCS so far has been the best, gain is perfect, low distortion and very neutral Downside is my amp is drilled for octal, I do have an adapter but curious if anyone knows of an octal with similar characteristics of the 6E5P (low plate R, mu >30) |
