I am looking to build a preamp with larger, and cool looking tubes. Just a linestage.The 845 is kind'a dull. Looks like an EL-34. And I used to work on a welder that had a tube rectifier, it was water cooled. Now that was impressive, but not what I'm looking for. And like I said, I don't want to give up any offspring for the price of the tube.
I should have been more specific. It sounds like I'm nit picky, but I am not. Just looking for a pretty tube that I can use.
