I would still try the bottom getter Sylvania GT 1940s thru early 50s, Often referred to as the Bad Boy type. True Bad Boys are three rivet plate bottom getter GTs made from late 51 to early 53. Those tubes are special but not a requisite for the flat response you want . The Military version of the Sylvania bottom gettered GT is the VT 231.
Capacitor and tube upgrade for Von Gaylord Lad L-2
I recently purchased a new Von Gaylord Lad L-2 preamp and the owner told me that this preamp can be improved with upgraded NOS tubes and capacitors. Has anyone with a stock Lad L-2 had this upgrade done? Can you tell me what was done( what brand tubes and caps) and what you thought of the sound improvement after the upgrades?
