Tube rolling in the Candela

The RCA cleartops come in second.   Thy will take a lifeless sounding piece of equipment and make it sound great.

I rather doubt Any tube can do that!

I liked the PSVANE for new tubes.

I liked the sound of the Psvane tubes and rather rapidly went through three matched pairs.  Good sound but they got noisy quickly.

 I use amperex bugle boy primarily or its Philips and valvo variations. The German valvo are equally good. Also When
i roll them it with a tungsrum that is very nice. Both seem to me very balance presentation. Mullard and clear tops are also very good depending on your tastes and equipment. I have tried the telefunken but for me they are a cold sound. Have not tried modern types as I have a lifetime stash of nos. The candela is one of those animals that is very balanced and allows for a wide variety of tubes to experiment with. 

Indeed it is. I have tried several nos tubes including Amperex, Telefunken, Mullard, RCA clear tops, CBS hytron...etc.I find for my system the Amperex 7316 with 'D' getter gives me the cleanest, most pleasing sound.
