Joel, 

We have at least two things in common, the love of music and white hair 
So Brian,

Seems you're not very happy with "ATMP", just wondering why it seems little interest in possibly improving your music library with such an iconic album' remaster?
The Kristofferson lp is highly recommended!

I'd love it if he'd fly his helicopter here and listen a while.....
My music friend just left after 6 hours listening. The last song played was "Summertime" by Joanne Shaw Taylor. Gonna play it again. You should check it out!

I saw the greatness in her early on. I think I own all on vinyl?
BTW, Brian...
The Telefunken smoothe plates were a favorite of mine in my former EAR 834 phono stage..

I had moved on from those tubes to others in my EAR life 
I chose not to respond to your search for guidance in your particular phono stage, simply because I had no experience with your Trumpet. 

My feeling is, certain tubes work better, and/or are designed to work best in the original designer's design.

So, how could I recommend a tube for the Trumpet by my experience in a different design?
Brian,

Kevin Carter, the designer)builder of my Trio, built it around the 6922 Reflector tubes. He's an engineer. He voices his designs based on personal experience. While I've contplatded using others..... Why?!
I guess since I know him personally and have listened with him, probably makes a big difference.

..."she thinks mercy is overrated".. 
My system, at this hour, is sounding better than ever!!!!

The center stage is perfect, the speakers have disappeared, the balance is perfect!!!!

New arrivals..

Death Cab for Cutie "The Georgia E.P."

Mary Gauthier "Mercy Now"

Hey James. Still testing positive although feel okay. If "God's FC" is Tillman's latest, I really like it. I can't keep up with artist' output like I use to. He's a big talent! 

 

Set up my new to me phono stage and volume control this morning. Had to buy some cables/adapters to make it all work. Those will need some break-in I'd imagine.
