I was just on the Langrex ebay store wow your right great price on the vintage Brimar's think I'll give them a try..
What's a good source for tubes such as the JAN 5814A's? I apologize in advance if I'm asking in the wrong place
Yes... yes we do.
In fact, there will soon be a Tube-Rolling PT.2 with 4 new pretenders to the throne. Similar format as before: An airy detailed tube, a warmer one, a new production tube, and a legendary all-rounder, that might be able to challenge the Mullard.
After that, though, I'm done. I swear it!
As soon as I put the Sovteks back in something sounded very different this time. At this point I was still willing to put it down to mind-games. However, further tests started to convince me that this gut instinct of there being a difference was indeed correct. The EHs have slightly more air, sparkle, separation and clarity. Although each of these improvements are individually very slight, when taken together they contribute to much more of an ethereal quality than the Sovteks which now seem “blunt” and “bloated” in their delivery.
