| Replacing Sovtek 6922 for NOS Look up fletchj as he sells tubes and is very helpful,Stick with Telefunken falcons or Seimens falcons as these are some of the best! They are a bit more money but well worth it. The Telefunkens will be a bit more warmer as the Seimens will have a... | |

If you want to go a step further, pick up... | |
