Mullard EL34 that sounds best


Will need a matched quad of EL34 for the VAC Avatar SE integrated at some point. Currently using Svetlana SEDs but I guess Mullard should be better.

What particular Mullard would you recommend and why ?

I use Mullard 12AX7 longplates in preamp and RCA blackplates as driver tubes.

For current issues I have both the PSVane EL-34 PH (Philips replica with metal base) and the EL-34 UK which is a Mullard replica. The EL-34 UK is very good for the $35 price per tube, and the EL-34 PH very very good, but is about $100 per tube.

They also have the Art Series which is supposed to be excellent, but I have not heard them

I purchased directly from China from jjyaudio and their owner Helen, and I know of several others who have ordered from her as well. Excellent communications, product arrived quickly and well packed.

Fyi- Upgraded amps so I no longer need my EL34’s.  Just listed a nice Mullard xf2 quad on the other US site…
