I've not tried as many different tubes as others. The ones I've tried are Mullard EF92, Tung Sol 5654, Amperex EF91 (actually manufactured by Mullard), and Amperex Bugle Boy 5654 (made in Holland). Out of these, the Amperex Bugle Boy 5654 are by far my favorite tubes. These are not easy to find and it took many months of searching online to find them. I was lucky to get them on ebay for around $12 for the pair.
Even though the Amperex sound great, I'm also curious to try the Voskhod 6zh1p-ev tubes. These have been discussed a lot on a different headphone forum with several members saying they are a great value and one of their favorites.
At any rate, the MKIII (even stock tubes) with Sennheiser 580/600/650's is a good combination that is relatively reasonable in cost.
