In my experiences with 6SN7, the Sylvanias were always the best sounding. The older the better. WGT, VT-231, GT, GTA, are the better ones, GTB had 4 versions with the oldest being the best. Some call them Chrome Domes. I am running brown base WGT right now and they are sweet.
Need help with tubes for AES AE-3
I have just purchsed a AE-3 and Im loving what this little fellow does for my system. I would never have thought that a tubed preamp could open up the music the way this does. The preamp came with the stock Chinese tubes and I know that its sonic signature can only be improved upon by replacing the tubes.
Since Im new to the tube craze, Im not sure where to start with "tube rolling". I would like to find a tube that has a effortless high end, great low end punch, and a midrange that you would die for. Does such a tube exist? What different tubes should I look at?
Thanks, Kris
