Rogue Cronus Magnum 2 tube rolling

We a friend did a test of 12au7's, about 8 different ones.  Psvane were not near the top.
Mullard won, GE second.  Both NOS.
Personally I'm using Philips JAN and RCA in my amp.

Agree with the NOS Mullards. Have them in my Rogue Pharaoh. Wow, what an improvement in sound. The GE's could be re-branded Mullards. Check to see if the tube says Made In Gr. Britain. The tubes in my Pharaoh are 12au7's. People's preferences seem to go with the type of tonality they prefer with these NOS tubes.

elevick, just one question if Millard and GE won your shoot out why are you running JAN Phillips and RCA, in my system I run what is best and those are the Psvane.

The JAN Philips I have are a better match with my current Grommes Monoblocks.  Every amp is different.  If I had to blindly pick a brand and only 1 brand, it would be Mullards.  The other reason for the JAN is power handling.  My Grommes really push the voltage limits and already ate a quad of RCA's.  The JAN's are happy running at higher voltages.

The Mullards are my favorite tube as well.
