What is the best tube for a Conrad Johnson


Hello

I have an older Conrad johnson permier 4 power amp in exellent condition running the top end of a set of infility RS-1b's. They have 7 emims and 4 emits per side. They are ribbon drivers. I want to retube it and would like an idea what EL34 power tube would sound nicer on my speakers. One other question is how do ruby tubes sound.

Thanks

Ask CJ before you bother. They are quite particular. I don't think it will be worth the money.
Try to find the NOS EL34 Telefunkens (very rare and expensive- $100.00 per tube). Test of they are the best of the best. Good luck.
I have a pair of NOS EL34 teles. the rare(r) type with the small wings on each plate. Feel free to email if interested. $100/ea is a steal for real NOS West german teles. (not RFT, etc.), and these will be more than that. Factory matched pair w/orig boxes btw.
