6922 tube question

I have a preamp which uses two 6922 tubes, currently Sovtek. To my ears, the sound is overly warm and the bottom end sounds bloated. I'm wondering if anyone can suggest a tube, 6922 or otherwise, that will clean up the sound.

I'd like a crisper, more neutral sound while maintaining strong lows (though not bloated) and extended highs. Any thoughts are highly appreciated.

Also, how long is recommended for tube break-in?

I basically agree that the problem you speak of is probably
not the fault of the Sovteks. Make no mistake that there
are better tubes out there. If you haven't spiked your
speakers or used some resonance control with your componets
you may find that doing some 'tweeking' may really help.
