c-j Premier 9 DAC and 6GK5's tubes.


c-j Premier 9 DAC uses a pair of 6GK5, apparently preffered by the manufacturer, as it has been used in many of their amps and preamps. As the tubes are overdue ( after 3 years ) and I'm looking for replacements, I'm wondering if somebody out there could advice me on: going for the original Sylvania tubes or... GE, Telefunken, RCA, russian, chinese, chech... I would also apreciate opinions from present or former owners of this DAC.I use c-j DR1 transport and the DAC feeds directly into a pair of Bryston 7B-st monos. The speakers are Apogee Scintillas, by amped by Symo cables. Power conditioners are Chang 3200 and power cords are XLO's Pro's.

yes, from Florida the mullards are great, and cheaper than from Kevin Deal. BTW what are you using in terms of Digital cable to your premier Dac 9?
