[QUOTE="seeker, post: 11160, member: 610"] Max, I'm surprised no one has posted their fav's . For my style and tone ( and it's very subjective) I prefer the following preamp tubes with my RT2/50, which has Tungsol 5881's , and an unknown pair of 6L6GC's : EG3- I wanted higher gain so I run Ei ECC83 matched high gain tubes . EG4- Sovtek 12AX7WA's in both v1 and v2 HG- Sovtek 12AX7WA's in both v1 and v2 Twin- EH and EH ( nice clarity, low noise. ) SL- JJ 803s , and Tungsol ( a little noisy, but great for VH ) Loop, input, Phase inverter- all Tungsol 12AX7 . I didn't notice any difference when changing tubes in the rear of the M4 , all pretty much sounded the same. I think the key there is just choosing tubes that are quiet, non microphonic.
