"I have the 6SN7 adapter on hand"

With but a few resistor changes to the voltage amplifier (center) tube, you could easily convert that to use a 6SN7 via your adapter. for a couple of bucks and a little bit of soldering, it should give you a good idea of the changes the full 6SN7 board might bring.

I'm thinking of converting my phase inverter tubes from 12AU7 to your 12AT7, since I already have some NOS JAN 12AT7s in stock.

I appreciate your feedback on your friend's preference for the 6SN7 board. As I noted elsewhere in this thread, Roy Mottram said 90% of his customers preferred the 6SN7 board over the 12AU7 version. It's hard to argue with 90%
