Leafs, What is your problem? I took a chance and emailed Longplate for some advice. I'm new to tubes and he seemed to know what he's talking about. He spent all afternoon answering my emails, and at the end of the day I felt a whole lot better. I told him up front I was tapped out after buying my system and I wouldn't be buying any tubes. He could have cared less, he seems to only want to help. I'll email you when I have some money Longplate.
6922 tube rolling recommendations
I've been tube rolling tubes in my Bel Canto SEP-1 preamp.
I've gone from Sovteks to Jan NOS to Mullard(1970's version I think....$35/ea from Triode Elec) The Mullards sound much better...quieter background, better top end extension...it's really sparked my curiosity about trying other NOS tubes. I see VTS selling various Telefunken, Siemens, Amperex, and other older Mullards. Can anyone recommend a good step up from my current Mullard gold pins?
