I have been needing to put some new EL34's in my JVM 410H for some time now. I have had this amp for almost a year now and it still has the OEM 2007 Wing C EL34's it left the Marshall factory with.
I know Adrian here is really digging the Ruby EL34 BHT's. I have always thought the Ruby EL34 BSTR's are a great tube as well, and are one of the cheaper ones for the wallet these days as well. I sure would like to hear from any and all running either of these power valves/tubes, BHT's, JJ 6CA7's and then even the BSTR's that I already have in quite a few amps..
Now as for the JJ 6CA7's, I am really GAS ing to try a quad of these. I experimented with a pair in my SL-X many many years ago and I have a couple duets stashed away. I do not want to pull any power tubes out of my stash at this time, so figured i would just buy a new quad. Plus I need a matched quad anyway.
And then, I am thinking my '98 DSL100 is in need of a fresh quad of EL34's as well. My plan is to possibly buy a quad of each I have mentioned, then audition both in each of those amps, then swap them and audition again.
My GAS for the JJ 6CA7's is due to remembering that they made my SL-X really come alive big time. Never went back to trying those 6CA7's and the SL-X has been stored away. I due plan on getting that SL-X out here real soon lol.
