Anyone tried the EAT 6922s in their preamp? Or replaced 6550s with the new KT 120s


I have a CJ Premier 16 2 and have used NOS Siemens Rohrs and Tungsrams. The Siemens offer more extension and air and the Tungsrams have really nice warmth and body. Wondering what the EATs might have to offer. For a price of course. 

I also have Premier 12s and have used NOS 6550 Tungsols and Russian KT88s CJ confirmed the 12s could use the new KT 120s and was wondering if anyone had tried these? Or which input and driver tubes proved most successful?

Any favorites for a 12AX7 in a PR 15 phono stage?

Speakers are B&W Signature 30s
TT is a Gyro SE, SME V, Benz Ebony. 

Thanks

Yes, I tried the EAT 12ax7 and KT88 on my (2) MC275 V and never look back. Also purchased 4 extra KT88 going forward, just incase they stop making them.

One friend brought 8 EAT 6922 at the CES last year, that he'll never pull them out.
