6h30 tube


Hi All,
I am due to replace 6h30 tube on my 75SE Bat amp.Presently I am using
6h30 EB tube.Would it improve the sound any,if at all if I went with 6h30-DR
which is several times the price of original tube?
I thank all of you in advance for your input.
Regards,
Rod

The 6h30 dr's seem to have a bigger impact(improvement)when used in preamps as oppose to amps. Personally,they were a big improvement in my LS-25 mkII as well as my friend's LS-26. They have a life expectancy of 10,000 hrs.
I had the exact opposite experience as Dgarretson. My 5yr. old Bat 6h30dr's sounded much better than a brand new pair of EH 6h30pi goldpins.
The only way you'll know for sure is to try them yourself in your system but at the price they're going for now, it is an expensive endeavor.
