I've got a 25 Watt D-Lux. It is not a headroom machine by any stretch. I found I got the most headroom with SED 6L6GC winged "c" power tubes and a 12ay7 in v1 and a 12ax7 in v2. I've found for preamp tubes a lot of my old 70's Fender stock preamp tubes are bright in a very pleasant way and for new production I've found EI preamp tubes to be bright and musical.
