I agree with Jab. I have tried many different NOS versions in my VAC pre and each brought something nice to the presentation. Every time, though, I have found myself back with my VAC sourced tubes. The balance across the board is better IMO.
Best tube rolling options for VAC Ren MkIII preamp
I have read most VAC threads on Audiogon and pieced together some information on tube rolling for VAC 300.1a and VAC preamps (Renaissance Mk III is what I own). Was hoping to get in one thread others' experience/POV/advice on what the best tube swapping options have been for their VAC gear, or other high end amps/preamps that take similar tubes (e.g., 12AX7, 12AU7, 6sn7), or if stock tubes from VAC ended up being the best choice. Thanks in advance for any insights. If I'm missing an definitive thread on this pls redirect me.
