So much frustration, but i grabbed a beer and laughed about it when it was all done ...thrilling experience

I suggest you let the stock ones burn in;since they are known to be very decent tubes. Although, i was in a hurry to tube roll, so i can't thoroughly compare and contrast.

You should purchase the Ef95 M8100
2x NOS MULLARD CV4010 VALVE EF95 M8100 6AK5 5654 Tubes - eBay (item 270506323434 end time Jan-24-10 13:20:14 PST)


down the road since they are some-what similar to the the m8161 + no need to put jumper caps, just plug and play + only 20 bucks !

then when you have another $50 or so, consider trying out the Sovtek 6H30PI power tubes. incredible tubes that shines with burn in+ makes the music tight, deep and relaxing.
