Modwright PH 9.0X Tube Rolling Question

I owned a 9.0 for a number of years and tried many tubes.  If you have a tube rectified power supply I would upgrade with a gz34 metal base.  It made the biggest improvement to any component I've ever owned. 

@testrun This thread is about the PH9.0, which typically doesn't have a tube rectified power supply. That said, the older SWP 9.0 did and rolling that tube led to substantial upgrades! Did you have a PH9.0 with a tube rectified power supply? I asked Dan about that years ago and he mentioned the SS and tube versions were not interchangable.

@blisshifi Good Info about the 6C45. I thought the Sovtek was the only one. Thanks!

I just ordered a set of Reflektor 6C45. off of epay with a 30 return policy. They should be here by the 11 of Aug.. Now I'm interested in the WE 417A to roll instead of the Siemens E88, which is in the pre now. Has anyone tried the We-417A in their unit?

I have been fortunate to have been demonstrated in the UK a

Modwright PH 9.0 'SE' and not the 'X' Model.

This attached is the sale add for the Phonostage I was demonstrated.

There has been a few years past now, but do recall it had a very warm sonic, that was very relaxing and I felt perfect for adding a colour to Chicago Blues Recordings.

I am not aware if the 'X' Model is with the same sonic traits.

If there is a Bloom with the 'X' model, and a it is wanted to be heard with a leaner sonic trait. My experience of the Amperex Bugle Boy's - 'Orange Text' has shown these are quite un-valve like when compared alongside a range of valves.

What is good to know is that there are tube options to produce a Warm Bloated Sound, and the Antithesis of this being quite lean.

I use Early 60's E88CC's in two devices. The choices made following quite a few periods of Tube Rolling, are Siemens and Halske in a Phonostage and Mullards in a DAC. 

Is it not strange that different Valves are selected from each other for different circuits? Tube Rolling does deliver a few curve balls.
