I have a Rogue preamp and they replied to my email about which were the critical positions. Perhaps CJ would similarly help you. I think, however, that the signal position is the more critical, the driver secondary. It sure would be nice if CJ would help you with this.
Which tubes to spend the most money on in a PV-5?
I have a CJ PV-5, but don't really understand the circuit. The tube layout is here:

If I am going to put expensive tubes in the most critical slots, which positions/tubes are the most critical to the sound?
Between Telefunken, Amperex, RCA, GE, Mullard, and Sylvannia, are there preferences to get the best sound for any particular position?
Thanks for your help....
