Ok, V2 is all tube preamp with 3-12AX7 preamp tubes...
But if can not find 12AX7, can I put other tubes?
Maybe JJ ECC83S ?
Which are better?
The reason i am asking this is that I am from bosnia ans at the moment I have friend in Washington DC coming back home in 10 days so I can ask him to bring me one replacement set of tubes.... but which one?
1. ECC83S JJ
2. Golden Dragon 12AX7A (ALSO KNOWN AS ECC83, E83CC)
3. Svetlana 12AX7 (Russian)
4. Electro-Harmonix 12AX7 EH and 12AX7 EHG (with gold pins or without?)
5. Electro-Harmonix 12AX7 Gold Pin
6. Sino 12AX7A
7. Sovtek 12AX7LP
8. Sovtek 12AX7LPS, 12AX7WA, 12AX7WB,
9. Tung-Sol ECC803s 12AX7 Gold Pin
10. BLACK SABLE Sovtek 12AX7LPS
11. US Made 12AX7
not to writte every single in the world....... how much money should we give for these tubes? 20 USD for single? More? Les?

IS this too much to ask? I also have no much experience with tube amps....

And when I order tubes what to ask for:
Hi gain, matching, balansed triodes, matched+balanced triodes or low noise an microphonics tests... for exapmle you pay for JJ / Tesla ECC83s / 12AX7 $9.95 but has to add +2 or 4 dollars for aditional tests...
Anybody?
