Replasment for Mullard Long Plates?

Hey Wolf. Save yourself the aggravation of the AA Tube Asylum Reissue Gold Lion 12AX7 thread. One look at all the posts gave me a headache. Give Jim McShane an e-mail or a call first. He is definitely a straight shooter and was nice when I asked him about 12AX7s and my Jolida 502P.

Hey Wolf.

Thanks for posting your findings on the "Preferred 7025s". I may add them to my fast growing list of 12AX7 tubes to try on my Jolida. What 12AT7 tubes are you using with the Preferred 7025s to get the sound you are describing?

Hey Wolf. Good to know those preferred 7025s work well with the stock EH 12AT7s. One less pair of tubes to buy. At the rate I'm going I will be crushed under a pile of tubes very soon. I've got way too many sets on hand already. From Mullard to JJ I've got way to many sets of 12AX7 and 12AT7 tubes to try.

I did give the Jolida 502p a quick run with matched Tung Sol 12AX7 and 12AT7s along with the Jim McShane matched quad of Tung Sol KT 120s I got and the sound was excellent. I would have listened more but then the heat wave hit the east coast. Now that it is cooler I'll give the 502p more listening time.
