which tubes for which genre ?


i have finally decided to turn to tubes but have no idea where to start, i've been reading into 2a3 and 300b triodes but they seem to have a reputation to shine in accoustic and vocals. i mainly listen to rock do these tubes do well in rock or am i better off looking elsewhere? i use the dynaudio audience 42's

For what you're interested in, SETs might not be the way to go.

Do some research on push-pull designs which should give you the power to rock out. KT-88 based designs could get you there.

Another option is using a tube preamp with an SS amp.

Good luck!
