Pope Holland Tubes for Cary SLP98P

I have read some good feedback on the Pope tubes for the Cary preamps, does anyone have experience with them and the Cary? Is it worth $600 to upgrade, is there that much improvement?

Sorry, I should have put this on the question, but my Cary is an F1 to the max. Has a few other upgrades besides the ordinary F1 package.

I love the sound now, but I haven't tube rolled the output stage at all yet, and was wondering if the the Pope's would be an improvement.

Rodman99999,

thanks for the suggestions, much appreciated.

Mechans,

I had never heard of Pope tubes prior to about a week ago when I searched tube rolling on the Cary SLP98 so you must be thinking of someone else. I like my preamp a lot, I am just wondering if it's worth $600 or should I move up to the SLP 05 and get a seperate phono stage?

I may try rolling the tubes first.
