Buying Tubes Again; Maddening


Has anyone tried the new production Genalex 'Gold Lion' 12AX7's and 12AT7's? I've been using the pricey Sophia Electric's but they just don't last long enough in my Hovland HP-100 phono-stage to justify the cost (they do sound pretty good though)...

Shoot an email over to Jim McShane when you get a chance. He is very knowledgable and provides great service:

I don't think he recommends the Genalex with a phono stage, but he will give you plenty of options. His website is here if you want to peruse his selection first:

I have no association with Jim, just have had very positive experiences. He is very forthcoming with his expertise.
