First of all, could you tell us about the modifications? I've personally used several different mods of the ST-70 with a number of different tubes. I've recently used Siemens, pre-Sensor Svetlanas, Winged C's, Shuguang Treasures, RCA's, Mullards, and the reissue Tung-Sols. Mullards are usually my favorites, but good matched pairs/quad are just skyrocketing in price. I'm also a big fan of the Siemens; they seem to be a little more neutral in the presentation than the Mullards. I might say that the Shuguang Treasures are the best of the bunch right now. If $200+ for a quad, then I would suggest getting the Winged C's. They're essentially the same as the pre-Sensor Svetlanas which have a very similar presentation to the Mullards.
Tube replacement for Dynaco ST 70
I just purchased a highly modified Dynaco St 70 and it came with EH EL 34 and I would lke to replace them since I feel they are a liitle thin and veiled on the upper midrange and lower treble regions where the voices are produced. Any suggestions on replaceing them with tubes that will open up and unveil the voices. I can uses 6L6 or KT 66.
