In my Audio LOgic DAC I use Tele 6922's purchased from Tube World.com They are the Pearl cryovac version. At $450.00 a pair they are stupidly expensive but easily the best I've heard. I've had a gagggle of NOS Amperex, RCA, Sylvania and Mullard 6922, 6DJ8, and 7308 in the DAC but the Tele's were the most effortlessly musical period! FWIW-plugging the AL DAC into a Audio Magic Mini Matrix was the best peformance upgrade I've tried And I've messed with Jerry's DAC alot over the last 10 years
Best 6922 tubes for DAC
I am thinking about replacing the stock Sovtek 6922 in my Audio Logic 24 MXL dac. Can anyone recommend NOS that would work well in this dac? Please try to describe sonic characteristic of the tubes you are recommending.
Rest of the system:
Joule Electra LA 100 preamp and Stargate amps, Merlin VSM speakers, Sony X707ES modified transport, Cardas and Stealth cables.
Many thanks!!
