I have a DC30 on the way and I contacted Mike at kcanostubes.com  and he suggested the Dario Miniwatt ef86 as the least microphonic,  the NOS Jan GE 12AX7WA's, and the NOS RCA 5V4GA's as tubes to get.  I'm gonna stick with JJ's in the EL's for now.  I don't know what your price range is but I just thought I'd share the ones I'm gonna get based on Mike's recommendations.

head over to http://www.alessandro-products.com/vacuum.html (http://www.alessandro-products.com/vacuum.html) and they give a run down on tubes they like.  i'm sure that the guys at allesandro have tried many more tubes than any of us around here, and so i think they're opinion should be valued.    They seem to like sovtech. the only sovtech product i've played is a Big Muff that was pretty amazing. I'll be buying sovtech tubes for the lightning i'm about to build
