Tubes for Counterpoint 3

I am making my first tube purchase for the Counterpoint 3 mostly for the phono section. i will be using the phono stage for now through a B&K PT3 mk2. The unit comes with two 6dj8 tubes in the phono stage. Would I gain anything by replacing the tubes in the phono section with higher quality tubes as an inexpensive improvement. If so, what tubes are recommended.....

Thanks for the advice.....

Try Amperex Bugle Boy 6DJ8s very smooth and sweet sounding.

Look on AA under FAQs and read Joe's Tube Lore for more info on 6DJ8 tubes. He is pretty accurate with what they sound like.

Happy Listening.
