Well hell, I thought I tried that earlier!
I replaced the stock Sovteks with EH 6SN7's and I thought they offered better detail.Audio Research has been offering Electro Harmonix upgrades. My buddies there tell me they think these are among the best tubes.
My VT100 has SovTeks (6550 times eight) and Philips tubes. I'm happy with the sound.
You should try the Svetlana 6550C which CJ uses in the Premier 140 and MV60SE. The 6550C or the GE 6550A would be my choices if my amp used 6550's.Scott,
I will have to look into this tube and see what they offer.
The Soundstage article about the CJ amps will be in Oct. I talked to the writer this past weekend. The 6550C is supposed to have a nicer midrange compared to the Sovtek and EH 6550, but the the Sovtek and EH have more sparkle on top.Thanks Scott,
I will look for the October edition. Nicer midrange is a real good way to get my attention. I will have to look into this in more detail. Thanks for the heads up.
