In Reply to: I just bought a quad of JJ 6CA7 today for my Cronus Magnum posted by AbeCollins on March 3, 2023 at 09:39:09:
I now have a custom built ST-70 I just posted about separately, and I chose the 6CA7s from the builder/seller. So now I have a quad of JJ EL34IIs from the Tube Depot in my CMII and a quad of JJ 6CA7s in the ST-70.The 6CA7s sound great in the ST-70 and I'm very happy with the EL34IIs in the CMII in their respective systems, but I definitely plan to swap them to see how each tube type sounds in the other system. I look forward to hearing your impressions. I note that I have efficient and easy load speakers in both systems, so your Thiels likely respond a bit differently?
I do not like the JJ 12AU7 in either my CMII or my Rogue RP-5 preamp, and I replaced them with reissue Gold Lions, which are great. But I'm very happy with these JJ power tubes and a big fan of JJ now. Not being Russian is a good start, lol, but they're really nice sounding too. Now I'm thinking of trying their KT88, KT77 or KT66 at some point soonish as well.
