Tube advice for my D'Lite build

Post by dragonbat13 »

Finally getting around to building my D'lite. I am using a mercury magnetics Bassman OT and a Mojotone Vibrolux PT. The OT specs at 355 volts on the primary, but I have not figured out what the actual B+ will come out too.

I am shopping for tubes for this amp. Something NEW not NOS. And my budget for a single 6L6 is 50 dollars.

As far as 12ax7 tubes my budget is around 35 dollars on the high side. I may have to adjust for that.

What I am looking for is reasonably priced tubes that will perform well in a Dumble type circuit.

Thanks.

I've used hundreds of JJs and have been very satisfied.
