Audion Silver Night 300b 20th Anniversary


Can anyone recommend 300bs for this amp?  I found that the JJs that are included lacked a lot of low end detail and sounded a bit bloated and strained at times.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thank you.

I agree with the above that a tube swap may not resolve your issue but if you want to improve detail, even at the low end a mesh tube might work.  Generally, I find mesh plates are more detailed tubes. The issue is, flabby bass is more reflective of the output transformer rather than the tube.  

At a lower price the Sophia Princess 300B Mesh starts at $425 (longer warranty is more) and at a higher price the Emission Labs 300B mesh at $895 are going to be a better tubes that will offer max detail.
