Another thing about the 5751s is that they were designed for the military, so they are very rugged, long-lived, and low in noise. I had the great fortune of picking up a pair of NOS Sylvania Gold 5751s about 14 yrs ago and they now reside happily in my Jolida phono preamp.
12ax7 vs 5751
hi all,
i need some advice. i`m very new to tube amplifiers and i`ve been doing some tube rolling.
i currently have a pair of grant fidelity matched psvane 12ax7t`s in my amp which sound fantastic.
what i`d like to know is which are the better tubes, 12ax7`s or 5751 tubes. i`ve been looking at forums and there are folk out there that say 5751 tubes are better than 12ax7 tubes.
can i have your thoughts on this please and also which are the good 5751`s to go for.
i really like the psvanes but if they can be bettered i`d go for it as my next line up of replacement tubes.
my amp is a yaqin mc100b. the tubes i have installed at the moment are.....
2 x psvane 12ax7t`s
2 x brimar 6sn7gty/cv1988`s
2 x sylvania 6sn7gtb`s
4 x electro harmonix kt88eh`s
many thanks in advance guys.
