Fosgate Signature Phono V1 Preamplifier


Before I start some expensive tube rolling on the Rectifier Tube, does anyone have any suggestions as to which to try? I am thinking of the GEC 4005 or the less expensive 6X4 SER-Ericsson Sweden "D" getter NOS from the 50’s? Any suggestions appreciated. Many thanks!!!

I use a Foz V2. 

Like everything audio, the tube/cable tweaks are a subjective, YMMV thing.

The manual states V3 makes the most sonic change.  After trying tubes in the other positions, I too agree it's the only position worth experimenting with. 

Whatever change the other positions offered,it was too subtle to bother with. I'm more concerned with tubes being as quite as possible.

Clean power(PS Audio Power Plant) and decent power cable are more  of an improvement in my situation.
