How has your luck been finding good EF86s?
Actually, I have been using the original tubes from the 1960s Akai / Roberts tape decks. I think they are all NECs and I haven't had a bad one yet.Akai had even installed rubber vibration collars on them. They've all been strong and quiet.

Come in where it's warm!
A warm welcome to tube amp modding fans and those interested in hi-fi audio! Readers of Kevin O'Connor's The Ultimate Tone (TUT) book series form a part of our population. Kevin O'Connor is the creator of the popular Power Scaling methodology for amplifiers.
Please remember these three principles: respect, sharing, community.
