My experience with the EH vs stock is EH if you like the sound more flat, neutral, and detailed, stock Sovtek tubes if you like the sound more warm, full, and euphonic.

I'm finding a lack of detail in the bass and was hoping the EH could help.
I'm finding I prefer the Audeze deckard,it seems better in most areas perhaps I'm just not familiar with the tube sound I've only ever used them in a my main hifi with speakers 10 years ago.
I'm listening to the WA7 with campfire cascade and LCD2 F.
I'm a little bit disappointed in my purchase at the moment.

If anyone is thinking of selling some EH gold pins let me know.
Thanks

I have decided to get the WA7tp see if that makes a difference then I will have fun tube rolling

 

[fuhransahis]

Would I be able to used a balanced source with a single ended adapter (4.4mm balanced to dual RCA) with the WA7? Heard the WA5 can accept this but not sure on this one

If you could pick one tube to upgrade from the stock tubes in the WA7 and WA7tp what would you recommend ?

I don't want to spend a fortune trying different ones just want a good all-rounder if there is one.

Thanks in advance

Lol ok good. I had those, great all rounder but not exciting enough for my tastes. Sold them and bought a pair of CBS Hytron 5814a and never looked back. Took me three attempts from buying 2 pairs of visually similar but not quite the right sound versions, but worth it in the end. They’re RARE.

Hope the mullards pair well with the LCD-2f
I don't want to keep buying tubes at least they must be better than the stock tubes ?

Definitely better than stock. Cleaner sounding and more controlled. Have you read the WA7tp tube rolling guide thread on here?

Definitely better than stock. Cleaner sounding and more controlled. Have you read the WA7tp tube rolling guide thread on here? All comparisons were done using LCD-2Fs.

Awesome, that thread is gold for WA7tp.

Hope I purchased the correct mullards.... definitely seem to lack bass compared to stock tubes they have been running 15hours at the moment
