Yeah they are supposed to be pretty efficient with a lot of headroom and a terrific growl when cranked. I'll just come right out and say I have an impressive collection of NOS & lightly used / tested vintage tubes from the USA, Holland, UK, and Germany that I hunted down from ebay over years as a hobby. I should not ever need a Russian tube and only occasionally use them for rectifiers because those really can't affect tone. I actually had to go look, but indeed I have at least two sets of EL84 power tubes in spite of never having owned and amp that runs them before I also have a Bugle Boy 12ax7 and some Mullards & Telefunkens that seem appropriate to try out in the preamp. Hard to see - the drawer is several layers deep - just the one pair of NOS RCA 6v6 in the back left would be several hundred now |
