  2. For alot a years ran ss amps with a tube pre, but as of late going all tube. Just me, both sound good, problem being my hearig (today) prefers tube. As far as the chinese amps, sorry, no help here. Enjoy
  3. Self gifted a Quad, Amperex Holland ECC88/6DJ8 Bugle Boys, really nice. Enjoy!
  4. Not sure of this, but remember reading that the 12au7s have more a impact then 12ax7s if only upgrading a pair at a time? I don't know. I'm sure I'll not pass on either when opportunity comes. Be it ax or au, IMHO, both would be a improvement over the JJs (not to take anything from the stock tubes, they are nice). Source......... Took the chance on epay, only after communications w/ the seller, bid my max and let it go, TADA! When they arrived, all was as he emailed me. Still, untill they got here I was on edge. This because of other threads about fake NOS 6DJ8 / ECC88. Did me right! Its all about communacations! Enjoy
  5. Three hours ago, a knock at the door, signed for a package from the Nederlands. Inside a Quad of Amperex Bugle Boys ECC88s opened up the pre and pulled the Yugoslavian 6DJ8s, dropped in the BBs and fired everything up and WOW!!!! Been playing sence. Right now Tull, TAAB. Digs deeper into the woofers, really crisp, clean and above all dead quite. Mids and tweats way more defined, super clear. I think I'll keep them, can't beleive it took 12 years to do it. Next the VRD! Enjoy!
  6. Where........When........Whatever....... Still "Tull" Enjoy!
