12ax7 Vs 12ax7wa

I'm using 2 Mode Fours. I'm thinking of changing the tubes. In other Amps I used 12AX7WA Tubes. I'm wondering what would be the difference between those and 12AX7's.

The 12AX7WA is made by sovtek it sounds o.k. it haves less gain than a 12AX7 from Electro Harmonix, 12AX7LPS, JJ ECC83S etc. If your looking for further info check out Elite Vacuum Tubes

Funny you should say that. I bought my Mode Fours Brand spanking new out of the box, and when I go to change the tubes, damn it, Electro Harmonix tubes were in it..so I replaced them with the same. Thanks for the advise, the amps sound sweet.
