The lack of treble in the 26 has been referred to by a few people - it does appear a bit flat on top. For a full sound with good top, try the 12A or 01A, or the 30 which has excellent top but a rather thinner sound. There are some distinct flavours in the DHT cookbook. I'd suggest you experiment a bit more with a greater range of DHTs. I went through a load of them by using bench supplies for the filaments - I just dialled in the right voltage and swapped tubes. I've personally found some nice mixes of DHT that I find promising. The cheapest is the 3A5 which is really peanuts - not the best, but pretty good indeed. Useful double triode, which could probably mate well with another double DHT the 1J6 as a driver. Must try that.I must take a look at SET - never had one but not too hard to build and I have the parts. I hang out here to discuss DHTs!!!
