They don't even come near a real Mullard (tone), get yourseft a few I61 or I63.
I know the very best guy for NOS tubes. Let me know if you need is e-mail, he's in California and is an ex-guitar player for David Lee Roth, his name is Terry Kilgore aka "Tubetramp", that guy knows his stuff, very fair on prices also, he will pre burn test all the tubes he sells and the guy will listen to your demands tonewise......

I have a pair of the 34Ms. They are in my 2550. Haven't had any issues with them. Sound Mullard like but are not as good as the real thing. Need a cold bias to sound their best. I have XF1s, XF2s, XF3s and XF4 Mullards so i know what a real Mullard 34 sounds like.
As far a reliability issues go, the 12ax7Ms have a reputation for failing but I've not heard that about the 34M and that has not been my personal experience.
