  I'm using Yugo KT90 type III power tubes biased to 49 mv, Raytheon windmill-getter 5751 in the AX position, Amperex 7316PQ in yhe AU position. My Cayin TA-30 has Auricap, variable feedback, and external bias options.

  Quite the combination!

  Best Regards,
  Irv Clemo

    I have the 3 main mods, too. I use "focus" often, actually, and love being able to adj. bias so easily. - Scott

    I'd like to try the same input tubes with my Philips EL34s and see how things sound. Thanks for the info.

  Thanks for your post. I am interested in tube rolling myself. Have you tried the JJ/Tesla?

  They were the winners in the EL34 tube shootout. See the link below for the shootout.

  I believe they are around $26 a matched pair from www.partsconnexion.com

  Cheers,

    tried the Teslas, YET!

    I've seen some cool-looking old Teslas advertised on A'gon, by "Tubemonger" and also a fellow in the Czech Republic, who claims his Tesla EL34s were made in a different factory.

    Oops, it just hit me that you were probably referring to the NEW JJ's...hmm, haven't tried those yet, either. I went from the Chinese stock EL34s to Mullard Xf2 single getters, to xf2 double-getters, and now to the Type One Philips'. In all honesty, I kinda' like the xf2 Mullards for jazz as they make horns sound lusciously euphonic, but play a classical LP and it's obvious that the Type One's are the better tubes...I simply hear more.
