I have Chenin, and for fun I have been rolling tubes.
I have noticed that the biggest overall difference in sound makes replacing stock 6sn7.
According to tubeworld the best 6sn7 is Mullard ECC33 military version (CV2821)

I have been looking for it for a long time.
Somebody on ebay from England is selling pair.

I bought one pair form him. It was not microphonic, the biggest problem with Supratek.
If it is the best I do not know, because since I have moved to new place (small room, with crannies, scene collapsed, bass if uncontrolled).
But at previous place stock tubes sounded really bad in comparison to KenRad, Sylvania.
Someday I will move to golden room and I will appreciate it (at least IÂm hoping for it).
If somebody would decide to try it (and have sound transparent room), please let me know if you could hear the difference and if it was worth the asking price.
