ampsandsound (aka Amps & Sound)
Thank you for the clarification. I hoped this to be the case. I'll use Elrog 5U4g and the GZ34 metal base. Could I ask if you have a favorite 12AX7? Seems there is no exact standout of mythos status. I was planning on RCA Black Plate but have no experience with the 12AX7.- paradoxper

Are either the Elrog 274B or GZ34 ok with Red October?- paradoxper

Dubstep Girl's Massive 5AR4/5R4/5U4G Rectifier Review/Comparison! (Rectifer Tube Rolling thread)
I've been through quite a few of these and don't really care for any. They're all very dry and edged sounding.- paradoxper

Headphone Tube Amps - The hunt for all 300B TUBE AMPS
The 4300E is exceptionally good where as the others are quite poor sounding. Easy enough to buy them both, compare yourself and share your discovery.- paradoxper

You'll be limited with 6LS7 selection and want to roll through the Mullard XF EL34 range as they're by far the best.- paradoxper

Woo's New Flagship WA33
Cabernet with CFA3 is great. If you find Primavera too reference sounding it can also help warm things. The TM300B is really special as are the Perryman mesh 45's if you go with the dual switch. You will also want to try the MELZ 1578 and metal base GZ34 as some top choices. But I'd recommend...- paradoxper

They're akin to an Elrog-lite. Tak are very sterile and soul-less to my ears. WE too warm. AN4300 has a sweetness that works well through the midrange and treble.- paradoxper

At the right price the KR tubes are appreciable. Just avoid the terrible types which are all the replica variants. And do consider the AN4300E. This a great middle-ground in balance as a top-tier technician.- paradoxper

Cayin HA-300MK2 (2022) TOTL Transformer coupled Direct Heated Triode Tube HeadAmp (Page 91)
It's understandable as he builds to a niche. What you really need to do is set a budget. A build from Thomas Mayer will be significantly more expensive than your Cayin, for example.- paradoxper
