I've been using those late 50's RCA "non clear tops" that A'goner Terribleted is selling for $10. apiece with "Hammond" label used. Much better,sweeter than current JJ 12au7.
Sweetest sounding 12AU7?
I have a Rogue 66 Magnum that came with Radiotechnique tubes.I have had these before in my old 99 phonostage along with some Telefunken 12AX7's
The old 99 phonostage sounded very good with this combination.
In the 66 linestage the R.T.'s sound somewhat bright.Im not sure how many hours are on them but I know they are fairly new.
Im wondering what a good 12AU7 would be for the 66.
I also have a pair of Sylvania's that came with the 66 but havent listened to them.I would guess they arent that great.
Any leads for a sweet and warm 12AU7?
Anyone have experience with Tungsram?
