Hi guys and gals,

I think the DC30 will be my next build.  Since I live in the US, I am planning on picking up transformers, tubes and a cabinet here, and getting "Package 1" from Nik.

Which leads me to ask:  What do y'all like for tubes?  I assume the usual suspects for the 12AX7s and EL84s, but I'm nervous about the EF86 and its well-known microphonic tendencies.  I've never used that tube before.

Also, how about transformers? Brand/source?

I suppose I should ask about combo cabinets as well.

Thanks very much in advance!
