Information regarding Audible Illusions 3A

I have recently purchased a used 3A. It was manufactured in 2003 and retubed in Aug 2011. I know this pre is hard on tubes. I am looking for opinions on tube life and what tubes to use with this pre. Thanks in advance.

Found that it prefers shorter ICs due to high output impedance. I am driving a BEL 1001 MKV with it. Have ordered a new set of tubes from Art. Have no problems with my current set but want backups. On to the music.
