Almost always NOS tubes outperform the 6DJ8 made today. I have a AR SP9 MKll and I sell tubes. I know. The Reflektor tubes 6H23 branded Sovtek, are good. They are consistently noisier(hiss),and microphonic than NOS, even the less exotic ones, ie; GE 6dj8. If you can find NOS at a price you can afford, I'd get them.My favorites are Valvo Red Label, Siemans, and Telefunkens. These are all pricey.
best 6dj8 tubes for AR sp9mkII???
hi! I'm in the process of replaceing the old tubes from a
SP9mkII that I've bought second hand. I assume that both
are the same 6dj8, as the model is still readable only on the Red Dragon ones. Opinions about what replacement would be better and were to buy it would be highly appreciated.
