Replasment for Mullard Long Plates?


Hello

I have a Hovland HP200p with 2x 12AX7 Mullard Long Plates, but the Long Plates are wery rare and quit expencive, so i want to try something else (but unfortnly i love the sound from them)..... But what shall i try?

I also use a 12AT7 Sylvania Triple Mica, witch i love and still want to use.

Buy my Philps Holland 12ax7 tubes,on sale here at agon, used them on a VTL 5.5 pre-amp..........maybe i should not of asked this am i breaking any rules.......?
I am sorry, i have many 12ax7, but older ones not the new ones. I want 60.00 shipping included if your interested. I don't even own a Russian or Chinese tube, i use NOS or 1960 or 70 stuff from USA, British or German tubes. Thats for 3 tubes.
Wolf,
Don't worry about archaic formatting at AudioAsylum, there are people there that have vast knowledge of tubes, new and old. You mat be right about some vintage tubes being tested on sketchy tube testers, but i can assure you my tubes are tested on a calibrated B@K 700 from an Electrical Engineer friend who rebuilds tube amps and amplifiers.In fact he will be doing some work on my VTL ST85 tube amp later this summer. Just to replace some power supply caps.
