6DJ8 vs. 6922?


Alright tube aficionados, are 6DJ8 and 6922 tubes inter-changeable? I would ask Roger Modjeski or Tim de Paravicini, but they're both dead.

Anyone care to name their favorites of each tube, for use in phono and/or line stage pre-amps?

6922 are  a similar tube ,the 6922 are a bit more rugged the classic Amperex especially white label D getters are one ofthe best verywell balanced, Mullards are warmer older Blackburn  type Also D getter , I am not positive on Siemens,  , Telefunkin German made Mazda made-in France ,

6DJ8 can be used in many of these applications and are very good value 

vintage tube services, or Brent Jesse Recording  are pretty popular tubes are getting pricey, 20 years ago 5x+less pricey.
