NOS Tubes for Rogue Tempest II
Yeah when I bought the amps the dealer requested NOS tubes with them, I believe.I have RCA clear top 12AU7s in my amps now and love them (they were a Rogue recommendation) but I haven't heard a 12AX7 (M180s use 2x12AU7 and 1x12AX7 each). Great, an... 
NOS Tubes for Rogue Tempest II
Right on - I believe those GEs are what my amps were supplied with (are they the ones marked with 5 stars?). I prefer them over the Mullard, but prefer the Sylvanias over the GEs (though it's not a drastic difference there, to my ears).

The many musical faces of Mr. Miles Davis?
Like Hellofidelity and others, I started with Kind of Blue, and I still go back to it (all the time actually). But recently I've been listening more to A Tribute to Jack Johnson, Live-Evil and On The Corner, which came just after Bitches Brew. If ... 
anyone heard a Rogue Athena?
Thanks for that awesome response! Totally agree re: dearth of reviews of certain Rogue components.I have heard quite a bit about how well some Rogue stuff responds to tube rolling. At some point I'll check that out for my M180s.Cheers!
