Reissue EL34, Mullard vs. JJ


Anyone who have personal experience with these reissue tubes? How well are they compared to their older classic tubes? Are these tubes still being manufactured by their original maker? Which one sounded better Mullard or JJ?

I just asked pretty much the same question. I tried some loner Fatboy tubes NOS (6CA7), and I went through all the sets of EL 34 tubes I had on hand. I wound up purchasing some NOS Mullard EL 34's.

Another tube that impressed me was some Winged C EL 34's. Other than the Mullards I bought, these were the next-best sounding tubes.

Good luck,

I need to add to my previous post, I also have reissue Gold Lion KT 77's, they would be no.3 on my list, but are not nearly as good as the NOS Mullards.
