Re: Preamp Tubes? - Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How?

Yes. Yes and yes. Ei was a Godsend for Marshall and they bought a boatload of tubes from them. I guarantee that Marshall was sad to see them go. My 1999 401 had all Ei tubes in it. Some places are wanting as much as $30 for an Ei 12AX7. That's a little too much for me when I can shop and buy something better. However, the Ei 12AX7 was probably the best made CP tube. How does it sound in V1?
