Teajay,
The tungsol round plates are very nice tubes, but aren't the only game in town. I have a big collection of 6sn7's.
IMS, I think the 1952 Sylvania bad boys are better. They have a bottom getter and 3 holes in their plates. Give them a try, if you can find them. Big bass, dynamics, and beautiful tone.
In my preamp they are much better maybe not in the LTA, but worth a try.
The tungsols are overrated and overpriced imho.
