NOS 12AU7s with Ayon amps

Just ordered an Ayon Spirit 2 - would like to know what NOS 12AU7s folks may be using with Ayon amps in general if not specific to the Spirit

Thanks

I replaced the Electro Harmonix with the TAD's and it was quite nice. They are not NOS tubes, but it was an improvement. The Ayon Spirit II is an excelent amp -

Much more precise and to put it into simple terms, a live soundstage. NOS is the only way to go, for sure, they are truly excellent.
