I love the pre-amp tubes they make. They are called GT-12AX7- "Older style Russian type, strong tone but a little edgy". All of the pre-amp tubes came with a number (mine are 6 or 9 I can't really tell which one it is) but they really sing. I have read that the numbers are rated for style but I think that they just match if you get the numbers right. The Gold Series is the ones that I bought and they sound a lot nicer then the Tung-Sol IMO.
