@bgross  it is interesting  how big of differedifferences  that can be had with tube rolling. I have been surprised  at the difference s that can be had. I am relatively  new with tubes 

So don't really consider myself a tube roller. Never fuss with my tube amp - new stock Genelex GLs in the KT88 and EL84 slots. They are tried and true. I have a tube DAC as well and want to play around with that at some point. See where the 12au7/ecc82 magic lives. The preamp/lineatage tubes make the most impact sonically. Not sure anyone would debate that but its what I find anyway. So for now, I'm my instance, I've reached the top of the 12ax7 summit. Going to enjoy these for a while and get off the wheel. 

Naim Uniti Atom headphone edition DAC streamer headphone amp. Added to Belles Signature integrated amplifier, Vandersteen VLR CT speakers with Vandersteen Sub3 subwoofer, Feickert Woodpecker turntable with Thomas Schick tonearm, Shelter cartridge, Audio Research PH-7 phonostage. Very happy.
