Can anyone tell me what the stock tubes in an ASL MG Head/OTL Mark III are? I received one this week and the power tubes (6BQ5/EL84) were not labeled. The preamp tube (12AX7) is a Sovtek 12AX7LPS. I assume the other tubes are Sovtek as well, but I would like to know for sure before I buy any more new tubes.
On another note, are there any others out there that love New New Stock or current production tubes. I love finding inexpensive current production tubes that sound great. I have never felt comfortable shelling out $10s to $100s of dollars for a 50 year old tube that might sound a little bit better than a $9.95 tube. Especially when I can buy replacement current production tubes at any time.
In case anyone is wondering, I am currently using an Ei 12AX7EG, and a pair of Ei EL84EGs in mk ASL MK III.
