If your system sounds bass heavy, it is advisable to try Sylvania vt231.

 

Tube rolling could be fun to tune your system.

 

The only bad part is that some hyped tubes get over priced.

I favor 6f8g tubes not for air but for fuller sound.

@shkong78  , I just recently acquired the good fortune to have a few pairs to play with in the balanced input sockets of my SLP05.  I am currently playing with a pair of National Unions and I was immediately grabbed by them.  But now the jury is back to being out.  I also had the good fortune of getting a pair of '52 Sylvania "Bad Boys" to roll in those slots, and I am not sure which I like best.
