Just a small list of what I have tried so far...
12SX7 RCA USA NOS with 7062 USA (not sure the brand) these came with the unit, sounds very balanced and smooth, however, the bass seems can use a bit more power...
6SN7 Raytheon Japan NOS with 7062, generally not as smooth as 12SX7 RCA USA NOS, didn't like it as much
6SN7 Raytheon Japan NOS with 12AT7 Raytheon NOS USA, it sounded better when used with 7062, treble not as harsh, midrange and bass got a bit boost as well, not sure why and I also noticed the gain seemed to be slightly more (louder)....it could be that it got burned in a little more...
12SN7 Philco CANADA NOS, similar to bad-boy design tall tube, black T plate, etc... with 7062, 12AT7 and 6414 Raytheon USA NOS all sounded very good, the treble not as smooth as 12SX7 RCA, but the bass got more energy and went a bit deeper, I had to adjust the subwoofer slightly so it won't get too much, but it's very good kind of bass, not boomy.
6H8C Russia NOS, this one is kind of interesting, it sounded pretty good considering it's inexpensive, it's not as hard hitter as 12SN7 Philco bad-boy, similar to the 12SX7 RCA, but with a lighter touch on treble and it may get better with time too....you can find this on eBay for a very reasonable price...
12SN7 Sylvania USA NOS bad-boy, tall tube, black T plate...etc...this one is the most expansive one I tried, also the best overall sounding tube, the treble got high but not harsh or uncomfortable, perhaps beyond human hearing but I feel it somehow, the mid is very life-like and it seemed to make lyrics much clearer, it goes well with 7062, 12SN7 Raytheon, but best with 6414 Raytheon, surprisingly the 6416 gives MZ3 really good sound, as I read some comments on the internet that this tube was designed for early computers and may not be good for audio, but I enjoy it.....and it has a 10,000 hours rating (same as 7062) which will probably last even longer with MZ3.....
These are what I tried, I may try the following in the future:
vt231
6SN7W
6SN7WGT
12AU7
12AT7 Telefunken (pricy)
