Your, "...other issue..." is addressed; in the third paragraph from the bottom, of this tube survey/comparison: http://www.dehavillandhifi.com/6sn7_vt.htm A well-chosen, NOS pair of decent 6SN7s would benefit your presentation. A nice amp, like your VAC, deserves good tubes.
Psvane CV181 TII in both driver and splitter on VAC Renaissance 70/70?
Hi everyone, I dropped a pair of Psvane into my VAC ren 70/70 in the splitter sockets, and I love the improved sound. I currently have EH in the driver sockets, and I'm considering getting another pair of Psvane to drop in there.
Problem is they're a bit pricey, and not available at the snap of a finger.
The other issue, I've seen people say a mixed setup - one kind of tube for splitting and one for output, will yield a better sound than using the same tube for everything. Some idea of cancelling out weaknesses vs accentuting them I think.
Anyway, I'd love to hear any thoughts on this. The improvement from the Psvanes was enough that I'd like to see what I get.
Thanks!
