Sounds good. I know guys that swear by this or that various 12AX7. With a zillion to choose from it's not easy! Glad you found a solution you are happy with.
[QUOTE=Razbo]My chassis was over balanced and would not stand on end or edge, so I spent time leaning it, making sure nothing touched anything. ...And why they don't put the bias adjustment on the top side of the chassis in the first place, I do not understand. :p
It's always interesting when you have to work on something. You find out very quickly how well the designers considered problems like maintenance.
I hope you enjoy your smoother, warmer, non-brittle tone!
