What powertubes are you using?

I like the EH EL34. Quite similar to Siemens, though the latter seem to provide a bit more output. I'll definitely pick up some EH 6CA7s to see how they run. I used to nab GE and Slyvania's one or two at a time on eBay several years ago. Prices were lower that way, and I figure with 20 or 30 of them about I could match pairs and maybe a quad or two.

Back from the dead.

I totally withdraw my previous statement about the JJ 6CA7..

I don't know, maybe my tastes have changed or have the right tube combination.. Right now I have the JJ 6Ca7's with some Wurlitzer labeled RCA long grey plates that test NOS. I think the sound is bigger yet more articulate and solid. The highs are a bit more extended, but I wouldn't say it's like a 6L6 because there's no kink to the response, and the lowend is filled out.

Now I'm interested in othe 6CA7's.

This is the sound I'm getting. I'll probably hate it tomorrow..
