Ive just changed out my 12ax7 in pos 3 for a 12at7 and it sounds really good. A little less gain but much sweeter sounding cleans.

anyone had a similar experience?

I have not tried that, although a few have.  That tube puts out a lot of current, not as much gain as a 12ax7, so it should drive the power tubes well.    I'm pretty happy with the original tube types in the pre positions, but it's good to hear of positive alternate experiences.

Yes I get the same effect when I put my GE AT7 there but the effect is more sort of prononced when I use it on v1 it seems.

What is the effect when you swap the jan phillips and the rca in v1 and v2? Most ppl I kno with an RCA almost always put it in v1.
