What's better- Chocolate or Vanilla ?? Siemens and Telefunkens are two of the finest NOS tube brands ever produced. You must determine exactly what characteristics you are after in a tube and then find the tube(s) to fill that specific need. If your component uses more than 1 pr. of tubes in the output stage- also consider a combination of different tube brands. Think of it as adding various spices to the sauce- A great sauce typically doesn't just contain salt and pepper.
