Seeking suggestions for 6922 tubes

Some years ago Kevin Deal had a good price on a stash of Telefunken gold pin 6922 tubes. At the time I needed a pair for my DAC, and they worked out very well. I'm still using them today. Now I find myself with a preamp that also uses a pair, and it seems the Telefunkens are not available at this time. 

I would appreciate suggestions of alternate brands that I might use for this purpose.

Thanks, John

I want to thank everyone who contributed to this thread for the wealth of information. There is so much to discover about the performance nuances of the different brands, and I will use this information in my search. Thanks in particular to rodman99999 and dekay.

I also thought that the idea about the adaptor for the Western Electric tube was fascinating. I never heard of that before.

Hi DeKay,

The pre is a Canary Audio 630, and the DAC is an Audio Note Kits 2.1 Signature.
