Picked up my second Trumpet over the years a few months ago. Brent Jessee over at Brent Jessee Tubes recommended NOS Amperex BB's. I can't quite remember what tubes I rolled in my previous Trumpet iteration, but it sounded wonderful no matter what. Great thread, btw!
Hagerman Trumpet MC (12AX7 Tube Suggestions)
I have recently acquired a Hagerman Trunpet MC and I am extremely pleased with it.
Desire to assemble some 12AX7 sets of (Almost) NOS Tubes to Tube Roll. 12AU7 positions are purchased but the 12AX7 Tubes are a minefield and somewhat costly after my research.
First question; Have any Owners here used the 5751 Tube in the 12AX7 positions?
Second question; Have any Owners here had any sonic success with 12AX7 USA Brands such as Sylvania as an example. I am reading mixed longevity views on the RCA Blackplates and not many good comments on the GE types.
I am very gunshy on the Re-Issue 12AX7 Tubes also.
I primarily listen to Classic Rock, Progressive Rock, Folk, and some Classical.
Suggestions would be much appreciated.
