Bottlehead Seduction and tube rolling help

Hi all,

I just purchased a bottlehead seduction phono preamp. I think that the amp is fine but that I need to do some tube rolling before things start to work for me in my system. Currently, I find the tubes to be not very detailed or transparent. The current tubes are some kind of made in holland generic tube. I've also tried some russian 6922s. What tube would bring more detail and transparency.

thanks
andy

Andy,

I have tried so many tubes in my Seduction, (huh, that sounds kinda kinky), that I would probably need a computer to keep track of them. My favorites are:

Amperex Bugle Boy 6DJ8
Amperex USN-CEP 7308 or the JAN 7308
Mullard Holland White Label PQ gold pin 6922

I'm sure that everyone will have different tastes in tubes, so you should get a good sampling here.

I am currently running the Bugle Boys and really like what they do.
