Ah yes, the fun part of customizing the sound to my liking...yum!I've been rolling some tubes with my Cary SLP which uses some of the same tubes as the AQL. Both has the 'N7s tubes which I have a small collection of now. I did manage to get my hand on a pair of Tung-sol round plates. That's what I listen to now in my Cary pre-amp. I also got a pair of wartime RCA's and another pair of sylvania's from the 50's.
I'm glad I'll be able to try out some of these old tubes in the new amp. The tough decision is why to invest those RP's...keep them in my pre-amp or put them in the power amp.
I'll have to remember you point on the 6L6 and keep an eye out for those RCA's.
I've been taking my chances on ebay mostly in collecting tubes, do you have a good source for NOS?
