12x7 tubes

I own a black ice audio dac that is connected to my CD player.Need advice on what 12x7 would be the best fit looking at Tungsram 12x7 and a GE 12x7 1950 long plate.My taste of music is classic rock and blues.

That’s what I use in the little black ice dac I have and the matching headphone amp. Clear, clean, lots of bass. Love them with this brand.

Actually many companies made NOS military spec tubes for the US and they are just awesome. RCA, GE, Philips, Raytheon. They usually have JAN in the name (Joint Army Navy). Jasonbourne52 is correct on the money. I have had really good sound from JAN tubes

I have some Tungsram 70’s 12at7’s in my raven amp and they are my best sounding 12at7. Great dynamics, soundstage and clarity. I have not heard their 12ax7’s. Brent is 👍
