And on the other side of the coin, those were lousy sounding in my amp - Dynaco Stereo 80 (mid-90's all tube version). You might want to stick with the Svetlana EL34's, any of the various versions. I've been doing quite a bit of tube rolling in that power amp and one of the best sounding EL34's in it so far have been the newer Svetlana (New Sensor) models - not the Winged "C" variation. A friend and I bought a semi-large quantity a couple years back and they have tested out consistently and are built like a tank! @ < $6 ea, I'm extremely happy with that buy! Not sure why some people think they are less than stellar. Of course, everyones set-up is different and one mans audio nirvana tube compliment is anothers nightmare! Mine is GE JAN 5751, Amperex A-frame 6DJ8 and GE 6550A.
Oh well! Let us know what you end up with and how it sounds to you!
Happy Hunting!
