| best bass or close to that 12AX7 tube My cj pre amps (premier 16/17) never responded much to NOS tubes although I never experimented a lot . Tried some Jan Philips and Sylvania's and the EH 6922 Gold Pins performed on par with them. And actually the JAN Philips were somewhat microphon... | |

| Pop noise from turntable when power-off the unit. Mine does the same thing but I always turn the volume down before switching off the Turntable which takes care of the poping noise issue.
