Thank You Graham.

I have had my power amps (Nelson Audio Image M9) over fifteen years and imo current production EL34 variants are pretty good compared to "at the time" production tubes.

Looks like this is my next power amp tube. Only down side is i need eight of them.... €€€

With my power amps SQ improved a lot with 12AU7 -> Shuguang 6N8P "globe" and EF86 -> Philips E80F
