Genelex 6922, 12ax7, or 12au7

Same tubes I believe.They just use the European numbers.[http://thetubestore.com/goldlionecc83.html][http://thetubestore.com/goldlionecc82.html]

I am very pleased with the Genelex 6922 & 12au7 that I am using in my Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe preamp. See this thread for a description of the sound:

You can get these a little cheaper from

I just got a pair of the 6922s recently. They are warmer and a little more laid back than EH tubes, though not as good in the midbass. But A-frame Amperex 6DJ8s were even warmer and didn't cost much more.

This is in a BAT 3ix, which I'm not sure is the most revealing circuit for these kind of comparisons.

Thanks, I'm going to try a couple of the 12ax7's in my Rogue amps first (I have Sovtek 12AX7LPS) in there now).

My preamp/DAC takes 6922's but I have my FAV Amperex 7308's in there now.

Interesting, I ordered a pair of the 12ax7 on Friday and they are in transit. I'll chime in after they arrive and I get them burnt in.
