[QUOTE="Mars, post: 847511, member: 817"] El Sid - I personally prefer the 6U8A tube, but it is not as easily sourced as the 12AT7. The EL84 is readily available in guitar amp shops, as well as the 12AT7. I have many requests for amp kits with common tubes. I have recently built an amp with a 12AX7 PI , and the results were good, but the 12AT7 sounds better i.m.o. I have used the 12AT7 before in an amp for Sweetwater (was that his name?), and they were very positive about the sound. This time I did some simulations on the TUBECAD program, and the correct load resistors are now in place. [/QUOTE]
