6DJ8 vs. 6922?

Alright tube aficionados, are 6DJ8 and 6922 tubes inter-changeable? I would ask Roger Modjeski or Tim de Paravicini, but they're both dead.

Anyone care to name their favorites of each tube, for use in phono and/or line stage pre-amps?

All are interchangeable. In addition, my absolute favorite is the PCC88 (7DJ8). I have NEVER had a problem using these in ANY unit that uses the 6DJ8 family of tubes. The National's are my favorite, (thanks Kevin!).
