Great to know!  If i am lucky enough to end up with a 596, I would definitely PM Glenns.  I am getting a good set of driver tube first.  Watching couple RCA grey glass listings right now.

btw if u have the money.
 
the metal base mullard GZ34 is better than the 596. similar sound, more dynamic and effortless sounding. 
 
and the Western electric 422A is the absolute best. same improvements like GZ34 but much more holographic, transparent, and tonally the most natural and emotional sounding, brings a sort of surreal beauty to the music

  how it compare to bgrp?

 
I think the ECC32s are a little more dynamic than the BGRPs.  They are both great tubes.  The ECC32s also play louder (not that that is good or bad), but the mu is much higher.

Yeah, I remember the mu is much higher that is taxing the WA5 rectifiers.  I wanted to get a pair but at the time I don't have GZ34.

  I  am a buyaholic. I just sent a check to Beyer for the T1 again for the review sample they sent me for the A20. Sounds excellent with the WA5 and also the GSX Mk11 I have here for review.

 
Send all your review sample to Cambridge, MA please.

T1 is my favorite with the GSX MK2. 
 
sounds even better than WA2, though i like the way the WA2 does the bass and tonality of the T1, makes it very musical and fun to listen to.

Frank frank frank - you will have to do GSX MK2 and WA5 comparisons!
