Thanks for the suggestions. The hum is (at least mostly) from the 6BX7 power tubes I've been using instead of 6080s. It has always been there, but the adapters have made it noticeably worse, but still listenable. Today I went back to the 6BL7s that have been dead quiet in the past with the National Union 6C5s. There is a tiny bit of hum, compared to dead quite with any dual triodes, but the 6C5s are new and I'm letting them cook a little before any serious listening. The picture doesn't look much different from the Tung-Sols, except you can see some of the labels.
I guess if I had to pick my favorite brand, or Team Tube, (sorry Chris, Side Valve sounds like plumbing to an American ear) it would NU. My phono stage uses a 12SN7, and you can get the 12V versions of many of the "famous" 6SN7s for literally pennies on the dollar if you shop around. And, long story short, I've tried a lot of 12SN7s and my favorite is a NU gray glass. My rectifier is also a NU VT-145 JAN 5Z3 which itself if the 4 pin version of a 5U4. It got mine for $10, I would imagine a similar 5U4 would go for 10x that at least.
How about we get jerseys made with our favorite tube company logos? And under served market for sure, but perhaps deservedly so.
