Title: tube recommendations Post by: casken on June 21, 2009, 08:27:22 PM Time to get new tubes. I'd like a tad warmer tone a little smoother and deeper with a new tube set. Any recommendations?

I bought some Tube Amp Doctor 12AX7 tubes. those were a lot warmer then the regular JJ's (at least in my amp) Cheers Steven Title: Re: tube recommendations Post by: René F on June 23, 2009, 05:32:38 PM I would highly recommend that you spend a couple of bucks on some NOS tubes for V1 + V2
I have installed Tungsram NOS ecc83 in mine. They sound amazing... Have also tried NOS mullard ecc83, in a OTS I built for a friend... They sound extremely good... Check out ebay for NOS tubes :) Title: Re: tube recommendations Post by: casken on June 23, 2009, 07:16:04 PM thanks for the suggestions

I was told a while back that these are what Two Rock use in their amps so figured they must be pretty good!!

I was told a while back that these are what Two Rock use in their amps so figured they must be pretty good!! That's what I just bought to put in my OTS once I'm finished building. I have no idea how they sound yet nor did I know this is what Two Rock uses. I just heard good things about them.
