Waz:
For the most part, JAN or USN tubes are more ruggedized and such and less microphonic. Kevin makes a good point in that he can voice his amps based on how current production tubes spec and sound. This why I had to go with tube's from the 60's to get that neutrality. However, with line stage or preamp tubes, there is less effect on the tone, but more on the spaciality.
