Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

Another tip

Here's another tip. Try some NOS tubes. The Sylvania 6SN7W (short bottke, chrome top) soudns very good. I did a tube rolling session on my friend's Audio NOte Conqueror and the 6SN7W came out tops. YOu get better transparency, resolution and yet sweetness. Its the single most important tube. The next is the 300B and here the 1950's WE 300B (sqaure getter) rules. Next best was the the TJ Mesh with gold pins/ceramic base followed by the TJ mesh 300B steel pins/balck base. For rectifiers, the WE 27B followed by the Mullard 5u4G. But the rectifier made the least contribution amongst all the tubes.
