best tube replacement for phono pre amp

Recommended Posts

I have a MapleTree phone pre amp and have had an issue with the tubes that came with it. It uses 2/  JAN CRC-12SC7 can type and 1/RCA 12sn7 glass. I get noise out of one or the other of the cans and have bought several sets with same results. Would like to find a better replacement.   Would like some opinions on what tubes to buy to replace these with.   I have switched the cans from one side to the other and the noise always follows the tube.   I finally found a good pair and now one of those is noisy.   Looking for quite good sounding tubes.

I see i posted this a while back. Gettin old.    I did buy and try the 12sc7gt.  Did not like them. I have since ordered some more replacement Jan and Marconi to try. I again switched tubes from one side to the other and so far no noise, go figure.
