Not all created equal!

Never have ANY two different brands of tubes sounded the same to me, although I cant yet speak for 6V6s.

12AX7s are quite varied in sound. I prefer JJs in my Mayfly Vox clone (crunchier-more gain), and yet I don't care for their tone in my Deluxe Reverb Reissue, preferring the stock (Sovtek?) sound. E-H 12AX7s also sound good in thre DRRI to these ears. Perhaps this is why some prefer the Tung-Sol 12AX7.

Anyway, it's fun to experiment!
